Introduction
What is self? Is self the experience of internal talk? What characterizes “self-ness”? Can identities change? Will the identity of a first generational learner belonging to a family of migrant labourer change when she is identified as a gifted child? What are the influences of parents and peers on the identity of a learner?
The above questions and many more similar questions trigger the exploration and need to understand the ‘self’. This course provides opportunity to the student teachers to gain an understanding about their own ‘self’ both as an individual and as a student-teacher.
Developing an understanding of the ‘Self’ is essential for an individual to utilise her/his optimal potential for the benefit of one’s own self as well for the society. As individuals in the society student teachers are integral part of it. As an integral member of the society an individual have various identities-gender, relational, linguistic, cultural etc. and it is essential to understand and address one’s implicit beliefs, stereotypes and prejudices resulting from these identities. The student-teachers need to become aware of their own selves and their identities as well as the political, historical, and socio-cultural forces that shape them. The course thus provides an interdisciplinary view in the development of the understanding of one’s own self. This exploration and understanding will enable the student-teachers to develop sensibilities, dispositions, and skills that will help in their personal and professional development and facilitate the personal growth of their students.
