COMMUNITYBASED RESOURCES

Community-based learning refers to a wide variety

of instructional methods and programs that educators
use to connect what is being taught in schools to their
surrounding communities, including local institutions,
history, literature, cultural heritage and natural
environments.

CONCEPT OF COMMUNITY
BASED RESOURCES

Students are more interested.

Teachers can improve knowledge retention , skill

acquisition etc.
Teachers make purposeful connections between the
materials taught in the classroom and local issues,
contents and concepts.
Educators might take the advantage of local experts.
Students would learn at least in part by actively
participating in their community.
Students do it in action.

HUMAN
RESOURCES
Locally Available
Experts in Mathematics.

Teachers are experts in real classrooms. In addition

teaching assistants, peers and even parents can be

trained to become experts.
In addition to teachers these experts can improve the
academic excellence of students.
There may be at least on person in a surrounding
who will be an expert in each subject.

NATURAL RESOURCES

Congruence:
Congruence (symbol: ) is the state achieved by

coming together, the state of agreement. The Latin

congru meaning I meet together, I agree. As an
abstract term, congruence means similarity between
objects. Congruence, as opposed to approximation, is
a relation which implies a species of equivalence.

SIMILARITY:
Two geometrical objects are called similar if they both

have the same shape, or one has the same shape as the
mirror image of the other. More precisely, one can be
obtained from the other by uniformly scaling, possibly
with additional translation, rotation and reflection.This
means that either object can be rescaled, repositioned,
and reflected, so as to coincide precisely with the other
object. If two objects are similar, each is congruent to
the result of a particular uniform scaling of the other. A
modern and novel perspective of similarity is to consider
geometrical objects similar if one appears congruent to
the other when zoomed in or out at some level.

RATIO &
PROPORTION

Ratio:
Ratios are used to compare quantities. To compare two
quantities, the units of the quantities must be the same. Ratios
help us to compare quantities and determine the relation
between them. We write ratios in the form of fractions and then
compare them by converting them to like fractions. If these like
fractions are equal, then the ratios are said to be equivalent.

e.g. Cost of 6 pens is Rs 90. What would be the cost of 10 such

pens?
Solution: Cost of 6 pens = Rs 90
Cost of 1 pen = 90 6 = Rs 15
Hence, cost of 10 pens = 10 15 = Rs 150.

Proportion:
When two ratios are equivalent, the four quantities are
said to be in proportion.
Ratio and proportion problems can be solved by using
two methods, the unitary method and equating the
ratios to make proportions, and then solving the
equation.
