This book provides an introduction into social science pedagogy in India. It delves into the interrelationships between society, social relationships, education and learning. Social science education in schools helps build critical understanding of social processes and institutions. This book critically examines school spaces and approaches to social science teaching and pedagogy in modern Indian schools. It outlines distinguishing features, differences, and similarities in pedagogical models and also explains how these varied approaches can be applied in the teaching process. The book also addresses the challenges and possibilities of using technology and the experiences of using technology-based resources during the COVID-19 pandemic. Part of the series, ‘Principles-based Adaptive Teaching’, this book will be of interest to students and teachers of education and sociology. It will also be of interest to teachers, educators, curriculum designers and social science course developers, NGOs, and public and private sector bodies who work in science teaching and learning practice.
