The NEP 2020 places greater emphasis on Knowledge and skill development with the aim of equipping students with the necessary employability skills. In order to achieve these objectives Practical works pedagogy in Higher Education needs to be relooked at for improving learner’s higher-level cognitive abilities. The practical works need to be designed to teach practical skills, articulate the domain of observables and objects, comprehend new concepts, and develop scientific thinking. The 09 chapters in this book discuss the strategies that need to be adopted to make learning through 'Practicals', more effective covering three major aspects viz. curriculum designing, Teaching-learning approaches and pedagogies, and the evaluation modes that need to be adopted to gauge the attainment of outcomes in terms of both knowledge and skills. "This book by Prof.Nandini, suggests reforms and innovative strategies in teaching practical-based courses is the right move to ensure attainment of the objectives of NEP. She has very meticulously emphasized three major aspects viz. curriculum designing, Teaching-learning approaches and pedagogies, and the evaluation modes that need to be adopted to gauge the attainment of outcomes in terms of both knowledge and skills" Says Shri. Prasad Lolayekar, Secretary Education, Skill Development and Entrepreneurship, Goa. "This book by Prof.Nandini provides a roadmap for a long-needed overhaul of conducting hands-on work for courses in all disciplines. I am sure that it will provide undergraduate science teachers across the country an effective tool to make practical work more outcome-oriented, authentic, and meaningful" says Prof. L.S. Shashidhara. Over all this book will serve as an important handbook and a guide to the educators of higher education institutions to make practical work more outcome-oriented, authentic, and meaningful.
Learning In The Workplace
Learning in the workplace has come of age with the publication of this book. It shows the way for a new level of sophistication in the ways learning and work are treated. And it opens new territory for exploration in the world of learning throughout life. David Boud, University of Technology, Sydney Stephen Billett provides a comprehensive and practical model, well-grounded in theory and research, to guide learning in the workplace. This is a 'must read' for those in vocational education and training. Victoria Marsick, Columbia University Learning does not stop when you leave school or tertiary studies, but continues throughout life. The workplace is now seen as an important learning environment, and businesses and government units are encouraged to become 'learning organisations'. This is all very well in theory, but how does learning actually occur in the workplace? Drawing on research of a wide variety of workplaces in different countries, Stephen Billett analyses the strengths and limitations of 'on-the-job' learning. He outlines what knowledge individuals need and how they can best acquire this knowledge in workplace settings. He shows how to develop a workplace curriculum, and how it can be implemented in organisations of different sizes. Learning in the Workplace offers a comprehensive pedagogy for the workplace. It is a valuable reference for human resource practitioners and students in courses on professional development and adult and vocational learning.

Praise for How Learning Works "How Learning Works is the perfect title for this excellent book. Drawing upon new research in psychology, education, and cognitive science, the authors have demystified a complex topic into clear explanations of seven powerful learning principles. Full of great ideas and practical suggestions, all based on solid research evidence, this book is essential reading for instructors at all levels who wish to improve their students' learning." —Barbara Gross Davis, assistant vice chancellor for educational development, University of California, Berkeley, and author, Tools for Teaching "This book is a must-read for every instructor, new or experienced. Although I have been teaching for almost thirty years, as I read this book I found myself resonating with many of its ideas, and I discovered new ways of thinking about teaching." —Eugenia T. Paulus, professor of chemistry, North Hennepin Community College, and 2008 U.S. Community Colleges Professor of the Year from The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching and the Council for Advancement and Support of Education "Thank you Carnegie Mellon for making accessible what has previously been inaccessible to those of us who are not learning scientists. Your focus on the essence of learning combined with concrete examples of the daily challenges of teaching and clear tactical strategies for faculty to consider is a welcome work. I will recommend this book to all my colleagues." —Catherine M. Casserly, senior partner, The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching "As you read about each of the seven basic learning principles in this book, you will find advice that is grounded in learning theory, based on research evidence, relevant to college teaching, and easy to understand. The authors have extensive knowledge and experience in applying the science of learning to college teaching, and they graciously share it with you in this organized and readable book." —From the Foreword by Richard E. Mayer, professor of psychology, University of California, Santa Barbara; coauthor, e-Learning and the Science of Instruction; and author, Multimedia Learning
