INNOVATIVE WORK For II phase Teaching Practice
INTRODUCTION
An innovative work can be defined as a new idea, device or method". It is something original and more effective and as a consequence new that 'breaks into the pupil. Two interesting dimensions of innovation including degree of novelty and type of innovation. Innovative work should be a catalyst to growth. Innovation may be linked to positive changes in efficiency, productivity, quality, competitiveness and intellectual development. Through innovative work the teacher can improve students performance by providing group work opportunities and resources to innovate. It is necessary to create and nurture an environment of innovation.
Teaching of mathematics is not only concerned with the computational know- how of the subject but is also concerned with the selection of the mathematical content and communication leading to its understanding and application. So while teaching mathematics one should use the teaching methods, strategies and pedagogic resources that are much more fruitful in gaining adequate responses from the students then we have ever had in the past. The role of innovative work is very important in mathematics teaching. In order to teach a lesson innovatively, the teacher must use lot of pictures, games, models and songs. In teaching learning process the role of innovation work is very important. It makes the class interesting. Innovation work is one of the effective method for teaching difficult lesson easily. So in mathematics education the role of innovation work is very helpful, useful and effective.
As the part of BEd curriculum demands to do innovative work. For that my innovative work is based on the chapter " Decimal Forms" in 9 th standard mathematics textbook. The present innovative work is an attempt to make an idea about the conversion of rational number with denominator as the power of 10 into decimal form. Also I assure the effectiveness of the work in learning through proper feedback from students.
OBJECTIVES
The main objective of this work are:
1) All students should be able to understand the concept of decimal forms.
2) Enable student to understand the conversion of rational number into decimal forms.
3) All students should be able to understand the conversion of a rational number with denominator as the power of 10 into decimal form.
4) All student should get clear idea about how to convert a rational number with denominator as the power of 10 into decimal from.
5) Enable students to recognise the importance of powers of 10 in the conversion of rational numbers.
6) To identify what were the mistakes they made while the conversion of rational number into decimal form.
7) To increase students interest in mathematics
8) To avoid confusion in the conversion of rational number with the denominator as the power of 10.
INNOVATIVE WORK UNDERTAKEN
As the part of teaching practice phase ll, I adopted an innovative qork based on the second chapter " Decimal Forms" in 9 th standard textbook. My work is a conversion model consists of rational numbers with denominator 10 and its decimal forms. The rational number taken as 1/10,2/10,3/10.....10/10. Its conversion make it more attractive with some creative ideas This conversion of rational number helps students to understand its decimal forms. They can also convert other rational numbers with denominator as the powers of 10.
STEPS FOR THE WORK
Material Required
1.Card board
2.colour paper
3. Scissors
4. Fevicol
5.Glue gum
6. Syringe
7.Transparent pipe
8.Sketch pen
9.Ink
Steps
1.Cut the cast board lengthwise and wrap it witha coloured paper, and write the rational number 1/10,2/10,3/10...10/10 on it.
2.Similarly take another large cardboard of size 40cm× 20cm and wrap it with a colour paper.
3.Firstly prepared cardboard should pasted below of the large cardboard
4. Take one syringe and fill it with ink then connect a transparent pipe to it.c
5.Connect its other end to another syringe.
6.Stick the syringe on the large cardboard and the sticks a small piece of cardboard with decimal forms of the previously wrote rational numbers written on it.
7. Glue the second syringe to the back of the large cardboard.
8. When you press the syringe on the back, you will see the cardboard with decimal forms moves down.
EXPERIENCE OF THE TEACHER TRAINEE
As the part of our B.Ed curriculum in 4th semester, I have done an innovative work based on my subject mathematics. It was based on the chapter "Decimal Forms" from class 9 inorder to get clear idea about the conversion of rational number with denominator as the power of 10 into decimal forms.This helps the students to understand the concept in the chapter very well. I include only the conversion rational numbers to its clecimal forms with the help of denominator as the first power of 10. It helps students on the conversion of rational number to its decimal forms.
I showed this work in class after being taught the topic related to the conversion of rational number with the help of 10. Students take the work and accepted with excitation. They keenly observe the working model and understand the concept based on it. Also students get clear idea about the the concept. They asked some doubts related to the topic. I explained the concept with the help of the working model. It provide a quick revision to the students. The role of innovative work is very important in students learning. They accept my great satisfaction. This makes me more with more happy. I could notice a change in their attitude for studying.They enjoyed and studied the contents related to the model.
The biggest challenge any teacher faces is capturing the students attention and putting across the ideas in such a way that it stays with them long after they have lost the classrooms. For this to happen, classrooms experience should be redefined and innovative ideas that makes teaching learning methods more effective should be implemented.
CONCLUSION
Innovation work helps the teacher to teach something effectively. Here we can increase the interest of the pupils and also can avoid rote learning by this working model. The use of innovative methods in the classroom has the potential not only to improve education, but also empower people.This type of innovation methods and creativity techniques has important role in mathematics teaching and learning by this we can gain the interest of the pupils and also the students to learn mathematics very interestingly.
