TULSI-PRAJNA
be given in the beginning and the complex concepts may be given gradually. These concepts have to be considered from the learners point of view. The author should always keep one point clear in his mind that he is not writing a chapter of a text book or an article but for a distance learner who has generally lesser knowledge and experience.
(iii) Proceed from particular to general : It you want to give a particular concept it should be generalised after the discussion of some particular cases.
(iv) State from actual to representative : Actual events help more in learning process of the learners. They should be given some actual problems and asked to solve. The help of representative forms such as graphs and diagrammes etc. should also be taken which will make the text self-learning.
7. Personalized style : The distance learner takes keen interest in the self-study material. He makes special efforts to understand the content of the unit. In fact, we talk to the learner from a distance. We, therefore, usually address learners by "you". This helps the learner to feel that he is being paid special attention. Likewise, we use the word "we" for ourselves, i.e., whether singular and plural. We have to make the study material writing more personal and interactive. The distance learner is not known to the author (teacher). Therefore, it becomes our duty to make the language or expression friendly and conversational for the sake of learner and also for the subject
8. Language : The quality of language is a very important factor for the eflectiveness of distance education. A simple and clear language makes the commun meaningful.
The self-study material should persuade the learner to read it, think critically, participate in discussion and present it in his own way. To help the learner in this process, it becomes obligatory to write the study material in such a way that it communicates with the learners directly.
