Environmental Studies is an integrated discipline as it is related to all aspects of the environment and its components. It not only defines the importance of the environment, but also relates to the other factors, components like raw materials and resources, geographical area, weather etc. that make exsistence and life on earth possible.
ReplyDeleteOne simple example can be put as, the relation of COVID19 pandemic and the health issues is directly related to the pollution we humans do.
Environmental studies is a multidisciplinary academic field which systematically studies human interaction with the environment. Environmental studies connectes principles from the physical sciences, commerce/economics, the humanities and social sciences to address complex contemporary environmental issues. Students in environmental studies gain the intellectual and methodological tools to understand and address the crucial environmental issues of our time and the impact of individual, society and the planet.
ReplyDeleteEnvironmental studies is an interdisciplinary academic field that integrates physical, biological and information sciences to the study of the environment and the solution of Environmental problems. Environmental studies teaching at Primary school helps the Students to understand the importance of developing good habits and hygiene. The students develops creativity, observational and innovative qualities in a students.
ReplyDeleteEnvironmental studies is an integrated discipline as it's give all the important aspect of human life and knowledge that we need to know and go through all aspects.it help our students to understand the value of living things and non living things and so on.as this subject include political, history,physic,Geo ...and so on..so it's one of the best subject which a student can get all knowledge and value of the society.
ReplyDeleteEnvironmental studies is an integrated discipline as it's one of the subject through which astuda st can learn many things such as the society,pol political science, history and many more.it give the knowledge about day today life and the value of the environmental development..etc.it is one of the subject where student can learn not only environmen but also different aspects and also help our students to know the value of society and the balance of the environment.
ReplyDeleteEnvironmental studies is the interdiscipline studies, also its study large aspect of the environment, in this subject human related value are importantly.
ReplyDeleteEnvironmental studies and environmental management tends to focus on how society interact with the environment.The human beings must have friendly relation with the environment for its longer and better survival.
ReplyDeleteEnvironmental studies is a multidisciplinary academic field which should be systematically.
Environmental studies connect principles from the physical science, Economics, humanities etc.
It maintain relationships between human beings and natural environment.Environment gives knowledge how to maintain better relationships with the environment because, if human beings misuse of Environmental things directly effect to the human beings.For example cutting down forest and construction of dam on the river can significantly impact environmental health and society.
It is said that sustainable development is only possible when we maintain the discipline with the environment.
Environment study is a subject of multidisciplinary and multidimensional approach. EVS integrates and comprises the concepts and issues of science (natural and physical), social studies (natural,physical,socio-culture,socio-economic)and environment education.
ReplyDeleteOne example is' Green Yatra' , its a plantation program. NGOs and Govt. of India implement such environment protection schemes and environment awareness campaigns as well.
Environmental studies is based on environmental aspect. Through this studies learner could learns awareness comprise the concept of the science as well.
ReplyDeleteEnvironmental studies is a multi-disciplinary field integrating disciplines such as biology, chemistry,physics,ecology,earth science, atmospheric science, mathematics and geography. It refer to organised efforts to teach how natural environments functions and particularly how human beings can manage behaviour and ecosystem to live sustainably. Environmental studies develop awareness about the environment and its problems.
ReplyDeleteEnvironmental science is an interdisciplinary academic field that integrates physical, biological and information sciences (including ecology, biology, physics, chemistry, plant science, zoology, mineralogy, oceanography, limnology, soil science, geology and physical geography, and atmospheric science) to the study of the environment, and the solution of environmental problems. Environmental science emerged from the fields of natural history and medicine during the Enlightenment.Today it provides an integrated, quantitative, and interdisciplinary approach to the study of environmental systems.
ReplyDeleteEnvironmental Studies is an integrated subject because, it comes under Science as well as Arts.
ReplyDeleteEvs is interdisciplinary subjects which combines together to impart the knowledge on socio,politics,human resource, geography ,anthropology, etc.
ReplyDeleteIt has great importance for today's world.
One best example is pandemic (covid-19)where science and environmental studies combines together to study the disease .
Environmental studies deals with every issue that effects an organism. It is a multidisciplinary academic field which systematically studies human interaction with the environment in the interests of solving complex problems.
ReplyDeleteThe scope of environmental studies is very wide and it deals with many areas like -
i) conservation of natural resources
ii) ecological aspects
iii) pollution of the surrounding natural resources
iv) controlling the pollution
v) social issues connected to it
vi) impact of human population on the environment.
Our daily lives are linked with our surrounding and inevitably affects them. Our dependence on nature is so great that we cannot continue to live without protecting the earth's environment resources.
Enviromental Studies that is envisaged in the National Curriculum Framework 2005 for classes III to V is an integration of the concepts and issues of science snd social studies and enviroment education.The issues and concerns related to EVS are meant to be part of language and mathematics.
ReplyDeleteThrough the teaching of EVS,the children are exposed to the real situations in their sorrounding to help them connect,be aware of,appreciate and sensitized towards the prevailing enviromental issues.We can take the example of Pollution and its impacts.We can teach the children about declining forest areas due urbanisation or human civilization and cutting of trees for the purpose and its impacts on enviroment.We can teach them about declining oxygen level and increasing level of carbondioxide which is the major causes for enviromental pollution which has direct effects on human health.

EVS is an integrated discipline as we found all the aspects which are important in our daily life in this subject. For example the topic of water in class iii to class v it gradually widens the meaning and uses and all the aspect which is important for understanding it in children. It also includes all the subjects as well.
ReplyDeleteIntegrated EVS:
ReplyDeleteAs stated by the National Curriculum Framework (2005), “Environmental studies for primary class should be a subject, which combines and circumscribes the concepts and theories from science, social science, and environment”. Environmental studies are not taught at a very primary level (classes I and II) but the concept which is important to know at that stage of life is taught through language, mathematics, and poems.
National curriculum framework (2005) suggested that in environmental studies at the primary level there should be no place for definitions, facts, and meagre information. Children should be provided with opportunities to express, learn by doing, asking questions, and experiment. Language to be used in the book should not be formal, but it should be such that children can understand it easily.
EVS books should contain chapters made out of real-life incidents, everyday challenges, and present-day issues related to petrol, fuel water, forest, protection of animals, pollution, etc. The books of EVS should provide children’s opportunities to debate, engage, and develop a sensitive understanding of these topics.
The syllabus of EVS has been divided into six themes so as to introduce every aspect of learning which is considered important for the child at the primary level.
The six themes are:
Family and friends (including animals, plants)
Food
Water
Shelter
Travel
Things we make and do.
Integrated EVS has a goal of comprehensive development of an individual's social, physical, and emotional perspective

Environmental studies consist of the sum of all the physical and biological factors that directly influence the survival, growth, development, and reproduction of organism. Its relation with so many subjects and realms make its scope wide. Some example of Environmental studies are:
ReplyDelete-Natural Resource Sustentation and Enviromental Management.
-In Industry.
-Research and Development.
-In Human Health and Sanitation.
-In Social Development.
Our education policy is framed as per learning hierarchy of the children. For e.g. class, 5 EVS, Super Senses. While teaching this topic, we keep in mind that class room should be learner-centered and participatory.synchronization of cognitive, psycho-motor and affective. Procurement of Teaching management system and teaching tools like CCE, and other academic activities are carried out for School based assessment and holistic approach and learning outcome of the students.Therefore,it is related
ReplyDeleteThe Environment consists of the sum of all the physical and biological factors that directly influence, the survival,growth development and reproduction of organisms. Environmental studies will make the child aware of the environment in the early stages, so he can contribute to society in a worthwhile manner.
ReplyDeleteWorld peace and harmony is not possible without environmental Education, the human race is a product of the interaction between man and his environment, which can be broadly categories into natural environment and socio cultural or man made environment.
Environmental studies envisages exposing children to the real situations in their surroundings to help them connect their immediate surroundings including natural, physical, social and cultural settings .By learning EVS children acquire knowledge, skills dispositions so that they become sensitive and responsible to their immediate surroundings.For example "water-"a natural resource.they understand water,it is very essential for all living things to Know the worth of precious water which is hardly present.Thus is required by all the living organisms whether plants and animals.It thus built an integrated discipline towards one.

ReplyDeleteEVS at the primary stage envisages exposing children to the real situation in their surroundings to help them connect, be aware of, appreciate and be sensitized towards the prevailing environmental issues. Beginning with the child's immediate surroundings (including natural, physical, social and cultural settings) related to self, home, family and school in the early grades and gradually moving on to the wider environment neighbourhood and community at large. Creating learning situations in the context of children is very crucial to learning EVS. Efforts need to be made to avoid giving direct information, definitions and discriptions and instead create situation for children to construct their own knowledge besides the textbook and explore various learning sites other than the classroom.
Explore to the real world would give opportunities to children to encounter various social issues such as those of gender bias, marginalisation, child labour, illiteracy, caste and class inequalities in rural and urban areas, challenges of the differently abled or those elderly and sick. It is envisaged that teaching learning of EVS, as a subject will enable children to realize how their dicission and actions affect the environment. It will also help in building knowledge and certain skills necessary to address the challenges they face around them. This will enable children to become advocates and stewards of the environment. Ultimately this will contribute towards building a sustainable future.

ReplyDeleteENVIRONMENT STUDIES IS A INTEGRATED DISCIPLINE , YES I AGREE.
ReplyDeleteTo understand the world Environmental studies plays a major role. To lead a peaceful life one should have the knowledge of environmentals social and physical aspects.
FOR EXAMPLE; DEFORESTRATION LEADS TO SCARCITY OF RAIN FALL,
SCARCITY OF RAINFALL LEADS TO NO AGRICULTURE,
NO AGRICULTURE LEADS TO SELLING OF LAND , FOOD SCARCITY, THAT AGAIN LEADS TO BUILDING CONSTRUCTIONS, NO TREES PLANTED NO SPACE, WHICH IN TURN LEADS TO GLOBAL WARMING ,AND GREEN HOUSE EFFECT. THIS IS HOW ENVIRONMENT IS HARMED SO,Children shouldbe given awareness about safety of our ENVIRONMENT through EVS and integrating discipline to live peaceful life.
Environmental studies is an integrated discipline as its give all the important aspects of human life and knowledge that we need to know and go through all aspects. It refer to organised to teach how natural environments functions and how human beings can manage behavior and ecosystem to live sustainably.

Of India implements protection scheme and environment awareness campaigns is one of the fruitful example of maintain the discipline with the environment.
ReplyDeleteThe environment consists of the sum of all the physical and biological factors that directly influence the survival, growth, development and reproduction of organisms. On the basis of components environment can be divided into two parts i.e., physical environment and biological environment. The studies of such integrative subject which covers all the features of physical as well as biological environment is called environmental studies. Its relation with so many subjects and realms make its scope wide.
ReplyDeleteEnvironmental studies can be applied to many realms or integrated disciplines. For example, human health, social development, research and development, natural resources sustentation and environmental management. The most important among them is the industry, due to industrialization, our environment has been affected badly. So, in order to protect our environment from further degradation, there is a need to adopt an environment friendly process and technology. In this innovational field of technology, biotechnology has shown good promise. Biotechnology is helpful in other avenues of environmental science also. So, we can say that environmental studies is an integrated discipline.
Study of environment study to help environment the student awareness about his/her surrounding and they can save life of environment.

For example: Class 3 EVS textbook contains the chapters like;
1. Chapter 1 Poonams Day out
2. Chapter 2 The Plant Fairy
3. Chapter 3 Water o' Water
4. Chapter 4 Our First School...
Studying these contents Children not only observe and explore their surroundings such as plants, animals, birds, water, and other objects around them. But also, they observe and explore their home and family for the people whom they live with and what works people do.

ReplyDeleteEnvironmental Studies is an independent curricular area from Class III and V. The primary stage, being the most crucial, demands designing and implementation of EVS curriculum in tune. Given this shift in global and national concerns it requires gearing the efforts on the process of curriculum development, planning and transaction in a manner that views a subject like EVS, which is interdisciplinary, as an approach as well. Over the years EVS evolved not just as a discipline cutting across the traditional subject boundaries to help children understand their surroundings but also as a discipline which encompasses natural, physical, social and cultural aspects, which children do not compartmentalize while interacting with it.
ReplyDeleteEVS learning aims to help children acquire knowledge, skills and dispositions so that they become sensitive and responsible individuals. Also, it helps the children to not only be aware but also raise the issues related to equality, justice and respect for humans.
For eg., The Chapter-3, Class IV,
" From Testing to Digesting ", integrates all these- tasting, digesting, cooking, preserving techniques, farmers and hunger. This chapter does not contain information about the digestive system, but children's experiences have been used to build an underground understanding that the process of digestion begins in the mouth itself. Later in the chapter, through a description of the food habits of two contrasting children, the chapter tries to raise questions about what is ' good food ' and why do people who grow crops don't get enough to eat.

Language to be used in the book should not be formal , but it should be such that children can understand it easily.
For Example : For Teaching a topic : "Water" in EVS in Primary Classes, it should be taught in General way as resources and teach through using Poems .But as soon as Children reaches to Class VI onwards the topic should be taught in terms of Science Subjects Like Composition of water, Physical and Chemical properties of Water etc.
I would like to select the strategic which one is the easy and understanding by the students involving projects works experiments discussion and field visits exploration etc.
