Planning, in brief, maketh a perfect lesson.
c. A teacher must be keenly aware of the fact that due regard, should be given to every
individuals though the group may be treated as a single whole. Even a temporary loss
of psychological contact with students may have consequences. Regular impairments
of mutual understanding between the teacher and the pupils become a rule rather
than an exception, are bound to create a gulf between them. This pedagogic tact helps
the teacher to establish necessary contacts with his or her pupil’s, gives teacher broad
possibilities for molding and developing the pupil’s personality.

Section – B

5. a. A teacher as an individual cannot afford to have role conflicts, because the post of a
teacher is regulated by role expectations and is subject to social control and assess-
ment. Any substantial deviation from the standard is condemned. Teaching behaviour
requires tact in communication, that is, we are capable of accurately predicting the
expected behaviour, violations of the rules of ‘tactful’ behaviour leads to serious conse-
quences in pedagogic communication.

6. b. There are four dimensions of communication namely intrapersonal, interpersonal,
group, and mass communication. Each of these dimensions contributes to the process
of developing good communication skills.

Intrapersonal communication
It is very interesting to know about what goes on inside people as they think, feel, value,
react, imagine etc. This dimension is known as ‘intrapersonal’ and has been the subject of
psychological and cognitive studies, which attempt to learn how people respond to informa-
tion and how they make decisions or store and retrieve data in their brains. It has also been
examined about how bias, love, hatred, or even apathy can affect human interaction. How
people handle information about their world is the central tenet of this dimension.

Interpersonal communication
Interpersonal communication is a transaction between people and their environment,
which includes other people such as friends, family, children, coworkers, and even
strangers. Communication is now seen as a transaction in which both parties are active.
