Project BriefTraditional education system in rural India mainly focuses on teaching not interactive learning among kids. The environment of traditional learning process is very common and for many primary schools today still uses it. In classroom when class starts several kids focus on their teacher what he is teaching, another do some other work, some kids sleep in the class. In rural India traditional teaching way is the classroom, uses basic material blackboard, chalk. Students write on paper/copy by pencil.

environment in classroom for primary school student in rural India.The scopes of this project are:• This project is developing for students in primary school in rural India

Methodology

Identify and analyse problems by

observing the students

Development of prototype solution by HFE discipline

Testing and evaluation by

test in practice

Enhance solution implementation in

practice

1. Questionnaire and Interview Normal question were asked to the students and teacher to get the

information for the above concern.The question asked were open ended and closed2. Direct observation We began the process of direct observation and literature survey We tried to observe the problems associated with students to learn

the existing method of maths book

Results 1. Teacher’s opinionAccording to four primary school teacher of government primary

school Pipariyah and two middle school teacher:• out of four, three teacher said that children do not come to the school is

major issues for them and cause for this are, parents are not interested to send their children to school• After providing midday mill children are not interested to come to school• One of the teachers told that since children direct enrolled in class 1st

without any prior education so it is very difficult to teach them. At beginning level we have to teach them how to sit, how to hold the pencil

According to middle school teacher :• In class 3rd, students are not able to identify the letter, alphabet and number

properly even they are unable to speak the number from 1 to 100The headmaster of that school told that dropout rate is reducing but

not completely, he said that in his school in class 5th, all children do not enrol from class 4th due to many reason but one of the many reasons are that till class fourth students are not properly studied the things so they do not feel good in the class, even if he enrolled in the class the drop out the school at beginning of the seasons

2. Physical environment Government primary school Pipariyah Jabalpur was visited where I

found all the basic amenities there which are water, electricity, toilet, playground, teacher, and infrastructure. Classroom was full of students of standard 1st and 2nd

They do all sit on the floor there is no furniture for student to sit, so here the government school is lacking in these basic amenities

There is no chart in the classroom for referring the figure or other things such as alphabet, Number and other Hindi letters

Children try to learn the things through only blackboard where teachers write and speak to the students for teaching

Discussion (Interpolation of finding : HFE)1. Analysis of Existing Curriculum Framework, Syllabi and Textbooks Textbooks dominate the educational process in India. When

Education Commission (1964-66) drew attention to the neglected area of Textbook production – lack of interest by scholars, corrupted publishers and their high price, absence of teachers guide, State Government started to take charges for the production of textbooks. All the states have established mechanism for preparation and approval of textual material in the book. This mechanism varies states to states.

2. The content analysis of textbooks Within this framework the survey and analysis of textbooks in schools

of Madhya Pradesh state boards has been done with respect to its adherence to the basic belief of the Constitution and the aims and purposes of education. Hindi language is used in these textbooks focus on patriotism, and some of the other values emphasized like communal harmony

3. Selection of booksKeeping in view the lack of availability of relevant and meaningful

print and reading material for children and teachers, it was important to create opportunities for reading and provide them with meaningful and relevant books for reading

Key Finding of Maths Text Book• According to MP board math’s text book although they tried to make

the book interesting but it does not seems interesting• There were many problem from the design perspective as well as

content design

1.Existing design problem in math’s book

A lot of negative space without any

purpose

It is showing two flower and represent

number 2

It is showing number 2 but number of

butterfly is only one

Same problem with the numerical value

representation with picture

No proper grid selection

according to HFE

1 2 3 4

HFE problem in design and content deliver1. No vocabulary builder for children2. There is no guide for teacher that children is able to identify

number or not3. There is no basic addition pattern4. There is no gaming pattern teaching method5. No real life addition6. There is more negative space

2.Content design 1. Identify 1 to 9 number2. 1 to 9 number writing3. Zero 04. 11 to 50 counting number5. Addition6. Subtraction7. 51 to 100 number system8. Unit and tense place number writing9. Length weight time currency 10. Shape 2d and 3d

Chapter 5

Design solution 1. Redesign the existing book with interactive manner

Proper grid arrangement and proper number of picture

worksheet

Number practice with

scribbling

Geometry chapter

Interactive pattern with a proper arrangement

Addition chapter

1. Vocabulary builder2. No negative space3. Feedback for teacher to know about children4. Puzzle game for vocabulary builder5. Real life problem 6. There is also a basic addition pattern

Conclusion Knowledge transmission alone is no longer adequate, as the sphere of knowledge is infinite. Providing students with only knowledge is inadequate. Rather, we have to equip them with an inventory of skills for acquiring and building up knowledge and inspire them a positive attitude for life-long learning.Presenting as brief list of changes that is recommended is listed below:1) The new design has made as the same page size of the existing book. 2) We added vocabulary builder in every chapter for enhance the vocabulary related to that topic
