Explanation:

In recognition of this central role of education in environmental protection and

conservation, the National Policy on Education 1986 (NPE 1986) states “There

is a paramount need to create a consciousness of the environment. It must

permeate all ages and all sections of the society beginning with the child.

Objectives and Scope of Teaching-Learning EVS at the Primary Stage

Diploma in Elementary Education (D.El.Ed)

Environmental consciousness should inform teaching in schools and colleges.

This aspect will be integrated in the entire educational process”.

The NPE 1986 and the subsequent educational policies (NCFSE, 2000, NCF

2005) have given environmental education an explicit place in school education.

As a consequence, today, the infusion of environmental awareness and

understanding has become an integral part of every pupil’s curriculum (formal

or non-formal), with a view to enabling them to explore and understand their

environment, leading to informed concerns and values, and active participation

in working for solving environmental problems /issues.

As you are aware, Environmental Education (EE) is introduced at the elementary

level as Environmental Studies (EVS). EVS for classes III to V deals with the

study of our environment (physical, biological and socio- cultural) with an

emphasis on its preservation and conservation (NCF 2005).

In the earlier unit you have learnt about how environment plays an important

role in children’s growth and learning, and how certain values and behaviour

towards environment could be effortlessly developed in the early years of

children’s education through engaging them in direct learning situations and

experiences.

This unit is aimed at enumerating the significance and scope of EVS at the primary

level, its broad objectives, and some of the values inherent in teaching-learning

of EVS. It will empower you to develop knowledge, ideas, values and attitudes

about the surrounding world of the learners and make them aware to inculcate

habits of being more environment friendly
