Dr. Rajwinder Kaur

Abstract :

 Science is a dynamic, expanding body of knowledge covering ever new domains of experience. The methodology of science and its demarcation from other fields continue to be a matter of philosophical debate. Its professed value neutrality and objectivity have been subject to critical sociological analyses. This study was conducted to study effectiveness of inductive and deductive method of teaching on achievement in science of secondary school students. For this purpose a sample of 100 students was taken from schools of Ferozepur district. A self made Achievement test was used both as pre test and post test for control and experimental groups. After analyzing the data it was found that there was significant difference between inductive method, and traditional group on achievement in science of secondary school students. The inductive method allowed more effective interaction between the students and enabled the learner to participate successfully in the learning process. There was a significant difference between deductive method and traditional method on achievement in science of secondary school students. Deductive method is simple for the students as they get a readymade key to solve the relevant problems. There exists no significant difference in achievement in science of secondary school students when taught with inductive method and deductive method.
