CHALLENGES AND SOLUTIONS

CHALLENGES

Students may have problem in adopting 21st century approach to study economics

Arts students face more difficulty to understand graphs in economics as compare to science and commerce students.

Resources (multimedia, over head projector) are not adequate to adopt new teaching methodology.

Non availability or Non-accessibility of topic in computer

SOLUTIONS

Arrange multimedia in a class to show how learning can be interactive and effective.

In the beginning of the course I’ll take classes to explain the concept of graphs that will help in further understanding of various topics in economics.

Bring PowerPoint slides and handouts (hard copy) in class and guide students to prepare assignments in the line of 21st century approach at home by using computer.

Search a book having illustrations for better understanding
