Impact of Access to Education and Technology during COVID-19 in Uttar Pradesh, India 10.30954/2230-7311.1.2023.1
  • Abstract
  • |
    • Economic recessions and pandemics like COVID-19 typically leave behind a degree of economic scarring and slower growth in subsequent years. Without immediate remedial action, drop-out rate of girls from schools continue to rise making way for early marriages, sexual exploitation, and domestic violence. In this article we review access to education and technology during COVID in Uttar Pradesh to address the following questions – what were the challenges in equal access to education and technology in Uttar Pradesh during the COVID-19 pandemic? How does education during a pandemic affect learning and continuity in education for children? To answer these questions, we address the issues that contributed to greater uncertainties regarding equal access to education and technology during the pandemic. We bring out the focus group discussions with head teachers, schoolteachers and students (mostly girls) aged between 12-17 years in rural and urban areas in Uttar Pradesh to suggest possible remedial actions to improve access to education and technology and to raise awareness of potential challenges facing students and teachers in Uttar Pradesh.

Effect of Constructivist Approach on Students’ Achievement in Science at Secondary Level 10.30954/2230-7311.1.2023.10
  • Abstract
  • |
    • Throughout the world, Science is one of the compulsory subjects in schools. Now-a-days online media (like Youtube) is frequently opted by faculties and students for online teaching learning process specially in science. But science learning is incomplete without hands on experience. That’s why majority of the students have lack of interest and motivation to learn science. It leads to low academic achievement in science. Constructivist approach (Known to unknown) provides tremendous opportunities for inculcating
    creativity and innovation, so that learner’s performance is enhanced. NCF 2005, states “Child centered pedagogy” means giving more primacy to children’s experience, their voices and their active participation. The objectives of present study are: to study the effect of constructivist approach on class VI students’ achievement in science, to study the effect of constructivist approach on the achievement of low achievers of class VI in science and to compare the performance of boys and girls of class VI students learnt through constructivist approach. This study was conducted in D.A.V School, Bhagalpur. It was limited to the students of class 10th. 5E Model of constructivist approach was implemented in the study. The present design of study was quasi-experimental. Class 10th students of D.A.V School were population of this research. The purposive sampling was used for selecting secondary school. 54 students were selected from two sections for the purpose of this study. Researcher selected section ‘A’ as experimental group and section ‘B’ as control group. Researcher had used two types of tools: Instructional Tool (5E model) & Measuring Tool (Teacher made Achievement Test). The data were analyzed by using appropriate statistical techniques i.e., ‘t’- test and ANCOVA. Constructivist approach had significant effect on the achievement of class 10th students in science (M1 = 22.16, M2 = 16.20, ‘t’-value is 2.345**). Constructivist approach had significant effect on achievement of low achievers of class 10th students in science (M1 =7.66, M2 = 5.5, ‘t’-value is 3.01**). It can be concluded that constructivist approach provides enough scope for active participation and interaction in classroom with peers and teachers. Through interaction, low achievers can get better opportunity to acquire knowledge and increase their achievement.
