LONG TERM GOAL

Adopt 21st century teaching approaches to enhance and build interest in students for appreciation of History and Geography.

Short term goalsI would change my questioning strategy with the

students to promote their critical thinking ability.For any research work or any good outcome for

students they would be encouraged rather than just being praised , that would play a role of motivation for other students.

More research based tasks will be given to students in form of groups.

this would develop the habit of working together and helping each other.

Instructional strategies and tasks

More opportunities will be given for students to answer questions that require high-order thinking.

Group work will be promoted

I will asks questions that require students to give their answers with logics and proves.

Students will be allowed to gather randomly in assigned groups or pair to discuss from where and how they have collected their information.
