Question

Explain the approaches to study the population education.

Answer 1

population education training for teachers or university students utilizing a separate unit approach is described in terms of teaching practice, preparation of audio-visual materials, co-curricular materials, and extension lectures. For students, an integrated approach is used to supplement science education (male and female reproduction, and man and his relationship to the utilization of resources, sanitation, food requirements, and hygiene), social studies (population growth in india and the world, and socioeconomic development, urbanization, and migration), mathematics (population composition, birth and death rates, natural growth rate and dependency ratio), and languages. Adult education utilizes both integrated and separate unit approaches. Field workers are trained to use a core learning kit. Since 1980, population education is required for classes I to X, and since 1985 in adult education programs. College level course materials include the University Grants Commission's book Lecturers on Population Education for undergraduate and graduate students. Education majors use an integrated approach with philosophical and sociological foundations of education focusing on population growth and social and education development and urbanization. Educational psychology deals with family size, attitudes toward population problems, the impact of large families on child health and welfare. School management chapters can concentrate on topics such as: health, food and nutrition; communicable disease; the environment; pollution; hygiene; first aid; and human reproduction. It is suggested that trainees integrate population education into the 20-30 required teaching lessons. Extension lectures for education trainees focus on population dynamics, sex education, health, and nutrition education, and are usually delivered by
