Innovative Ways of Teaching Periodic Table at Secondary Stage
Keywords:
Innovative ways, Modern Periodic Table, Secondary Stage, Visually Impaired StudentsAbstract
Periodic Table (Chemistry) of the elements has found its place in the syllabus of science at secondary stage in India. It has been observed across the years that students find Periodic Table and the other concepts related to it difficult to understand. Review of literature also shows that Periodic Table is considered difficult by students across the globe. Students consider this topic dry and abstract. Therefore, it becomes challenging for teachers and teacher educators to transact this abstract topic to students in an interesting way. This research paper focuses on the innovative ways of teaching-learning of Periodic Table which has resulted in enhancing learning curve and interest quotient among students.
