Pedagogical Practices by Primary Teachers at Basic Level: An Ethnographic Study
Online Submission, Crossing the Border: International Journal of Interdisciplinary Studies v7 n1 p19-30 Jan 2019
This small scale ethnographic study is carried out in a public school of Kaski district in order to explore pedagogical practices from the perspectives of primary teachers as a course requirement of M Phil in Education Studies from Graduate School of Education, Tribhuvan University. Interview with three primary teachers was taken along with classroom observation. Data are analyzed qualitatively based on interview transcription, classroom observation record and researcher's field note. The study explored pedagogical practices in two broad global themes (1) shifting from traditional to constructivist teaching, (2) multiple school transition and curriculum. This article argue that primary teachers are in self-transition from traditional teaching to constructivist approach which is remarkable paradigm shifting on primary teachers' understanding of pedagogical practices. Similarly, multiple school transition and hangover of English as Medium of Instruction are major policy related challenges in order to renovate the existing teaching practices at primary level.
