Methods are the ways and means through which the curriculum is
transacted through teacher to the students. It is a link in the process of
teaching and learning environment.
Different methods are there in teaching geography. But observation
method is something unique and widely acceptable and usable method.
Observation refers to the direct knowledge we receive through things,
events of the nature. We can observe through two ways directly and
indirectly. Directly we get contact with the real object but it is not
always available for direct contact. T hrough audio-visual and
instructional materials, we observe the object indirectly.
Merits:
Students get direct experience through direct method. It activates and
energizes their knowledge. It avails much information through easy
direct contact. Students actively participate in direct observation. It
also helps in presenting the bookish knowledge in an interesting way by
mixing ones direct experiences with it. It is also interesting one.
Demerits:
T his method is costly, time-consuming and not for all topics. T eachers
facility, skill, time is also a factor. Sometimes indiscipline may develop
out of observation.
But this method is more scientific that make geography teaching a
concrete base in schools.
