Problems of teaching Social Science / Social Studies

This chapter explores the core pedagogical, structural, and resource-based problems faced by teachers when teaching Social Science at the upper primary level. It covers issues like curriculum overload, the stigma of SST as a 'boring' or 'rote-based' subject, lack of TLMs, handling controversial issues, and the over-reliance on the lecture method, providing progressive, NCF-2005 aligned solutions essential for CTET Paper 2.
