INQUIRY TRAINING MODEL AND GUIDED DISCOVERY LEARNING FOR FOSTERING CRITICAL THINKING AND SCIENTIFIC ATTITUDE

By: SMITHA V.P.

Inquiry Training Model and Guided Discovery Learning are two teaching approaches that are known to promote critical thinking in students. This is a quasi experimental study to find their relative effectiveness in promoting critical thinking, scientific attitude and science achievement. This book describes the two approaches and also discusses critical thinking and scientific attitude in detail. It was found that both these approaches are equally effective and better than the conventional classroom lecture method in science education.

Making Women Pay

Microfinance in Urban India

By: Smitha Radhakrishnan

In Making Women Pay, Smitha Radhakrishnan explores India's microfinance industry, which in the past two decades has come to saturate the everyday lives of women in the name of state-led efforts to promote financial inclusion and women's empowerment. Despite this favorable language, Radhakrishnan argues, microfinance in India does not provide a market-oriented development intervention, even though it may appear to help women borrowers. Rather, this commercial industry seeks to extract the maximum value from its customers through exploitative relationships that benefit especially class-privileged men. Through ethnography, interviews, and historical analysis, Radhakrishnan demonstrates how the unpaid and underpaid labor of marginalized women borrowers ensures both profitability and symbolic legitimacy for microfinance institutions, their employees, and their leaders. In doing so, she centralizes gender in the study of microfinance, reveals why most microfinance programs target women, and explores the exploitative implications of this targeting.
