| dc.description.abstract | A study on “Influence of teaching learning environment on cognitive abilities of urban and rural preschoolers” was carried out in Dharwad taluk of Karnataka state during 2016-2017. The population comprised of 150 urban and rural preschool children aged of 3 to 5 years. Early Childhood Environment Rating Scale [ECERS-III] was used to evaluate the teaching learning environment of preschools. Based on the scores, selected schools were classified as high and low teaching learning environment (HTLE and LTLE) schools. Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children [KABC-II] was administered to measure the cognitive abilities of children. The socio-economic status scale was used to measure the child and familial factors. Results showed that, majority of the children from HTLE and LTLE schools fell in the category of average level of cognitive abilities. 25 per cent of them were in upper extreme level of cognitive ability in HTLE schools. Significant difference was observed between HTLE and LTLE schools and cognitive abilities of children. With respect to age, three year old children had high level of cognitive abilities than children of 4-5 years. Results on gender showed that, female children had high level of cognitive abilities as compared to male children. With respect to ordinal position, later born children had high level of cognitive abilities compared to first born children. Mother’s education had significant influence on cognitive abilities of both HTLE and LTLE school children. Results on mother occupation had significant influence on cognitive abilities in children of LTLE schools. The overall results of the study highlighted the importance of stimulating and quality teaching learning environment provided to the young children to enhance cognitive abilities of children. | en_US |
