Social Science Department

Education prepares the child for life. The purpose of education is not only imparting knowledge but more importantly to tap the hidden talents and potentialities of the students and helping them develop physically, intellectually, morally and spiritually.

Science generates tools and technologies. Biology generates life, philosophy generates thoughts. It’s Social Science that generates humans. Understanding this great responsibility, SICA is making its efforts in transforming country’s destiny by creating responsible and overall good humans.

To accomplish this goal greater part of the responsibility lies on the shoulders of Social Science faculty. In the words of Einstein ‘’I never teach my pupils; I only attempt to provide the conditions in which they can learn’’. These inspiring words are the guiding philosophy of Social Science faculty.

Our objective of classroom teaching is not just cover the syllabus but to uncover knowledge .It is a dynamic subject ,which deals with our past ,present and future. During classroom teaching or interaction we deal the chapter in such a way that the content can be clear at a glance. Later, we go for point wise description.

Day to day happenings are also quoted as examples to make the subject interesting and interacting. Apart from these ,discussion method is also used for teaching. Audio visual aids like short films ,clipping of the events, etc . and story telling, role playing are used to make teaching lively . Continuous, Comprehensive Assessment tests (CCAT) are conducted to assess the progress of the children .Project work and assignments are given to enable the child to learn by doing.

Instead of focusing on inputs we strive to focus on outcomes and shift emphasis to apply in real life. As we believe teachers are technically educated advisors who construct happenings and events to remould the way of thinking of the students and give society responsible citizens.
