Option 2 : A, B and C

Social science teaching needs to be revitalized towards helping the learner acquire knowledge and skills in an interactive environment.

  • The teaching of social sciences must adopt methods that promote creativity, aesthetics, and critical perspectives and enable children to draw relationships between past and present, to understand changes taking place in society.

  • Concepts should be clarified to the students through the lived experiences of individuals and communities. 
  • It has often been observed that cultural, social, and class differences generate their own biases, prejudices, and attitudes in classroom contexts.
  • The approach to teaching, therefore, needs to be open-ended. Teachers should discuss different dimensions of social reality in the class, and work towards creating increasing self-awareness amongst themselves.
  • For example, the concept of memories of the partition of India, caste-based discrimination, and sexual harassment at workplace can be understood better through citing the lived experiences of communities that make up the social and cultural milieu of the child.

Thus, it is concluded that A, B, and C are the correct options.
