Annual Seminar
of
Shivam P.G.College of Education
on
“Research in Education: Concept and Implication”
Invitation:-
Dear Sir/Madam,
                             It gives me immense pleasure to cordially invite and welcome you to participate and share your experience in a one day seminar on “Research in Education: Concept and Implication” on 14th Dec.2013 i.e. Saturday to be organized by the Shivam P.G.College of Education, Lehra-Sunam road, Khokhar Kalan, Sangrur(Pb.)
About the Seminar:-
Research is not always a concept that practitioners, managers and policy makers respect. Too often it is seen as an academic activity conducted by others – to the profession, not with the profession.
But I believe it should be respected. In fact I’d say education professionals are always learning, finding out things, analysing information, adapting their behaviour according to information received, looking to improve and adapting to modern demands. All of this constitutes research - whether professionals want to call it that or not.
If education is not based upon research and evidence, then it runs the risk of being based upon one or more of the following:
  • Dogma
  • Theory
  • Ideology
  • Convenience
  • Prejudice
Research enables all of the above to be challenged. Basing decisions upon evidence is morally sound. Hence Educational Research can help teachers to understand what works and why, what the short and long-term implications are, provide a justification and rationale for decisions and actions, help to build a repertoire to help deal with the unexpected, identify problems, inform improvement and so forth.
                                   
Let’s briefly discuss the importance and aspects of research in the world of education.
