Discuss the different types of Evaluation



Types of Evaluation :- 

A number of aspects of the student are critically observed to assign value to the student's performance. The multifaceted being of the learner develops through the process of education. Their value is determined by the appraisal process. So the evaluation in education is not a single process, but a holistic process. Different evaluation processes should be used to appropriately assess those subjects that are interrelated among students. such as,

1. Formative Evaluation:- 

Formative evaluation generally refers to consistent assessment of student proficiency throughout a unit, course, or instructional program. That is, the type of assessment during content discussion in the classroom is basically formative evaluation. During teaching or instruction content is divided into small parts and presented in order of concepts so that students can easily understand. At the end of each unit, students are required to take a test, through which their strengths and weaknesses are identified. Remedial teaching is provided for those areas in which the students are weak, after which formative evaluation is again undertaken. That is, the main purpose of this type of evaluation is to judge whether students have developed content concepts and special emphasis is placed on students' learning difficulties.

With the help of formative evaluation, during teaching or instruction, a teacher can know whether students' concepts have been formed and the progress of students in learning. As a result, teachers are facilitated to give feedback to students. Again formative evaluation gives feedback to the teacher. With the help of this he can select appropriate methods, techniques or learning aids for the students.

2. Summative Evaluation :- 

Whenever the formative evaluation comes to an end, summative evaluation is needed. That is, it can be said that summative evaluation is a post-formative assessment process which is organized to measure the proficiency of students at the end of a year or a certain period of time.

Teaching – The overall outcome of the learning process is obtained from such assessment. Class assessment, unit assessment, oral assessment etc. are part of formative assessment. That is, the process of making an overall assessment of the student's proficiency in terms of learning objectives at the end of a specified period or at the end of a course is called summative evaluation.

Summative evaluation is of two types. such as,
(a) Extrinsic and (b) Intrinsic.

Summative evaluation is organized when the students are familiar with the entire curriculum and expectations are prepared on the entire curriculum. To that way, summative evaluation takes place after the completion of an academic year and leads to promotion to the next class.

3. Process Evaluation:- 

One of the aspects of evaluation in modern pedagogy is process evaluation. Importantly, teachers are able to implement this evaluation task appropriately and for this the teacher's observation skills need to be idealized and thoroughly judged. In any assessment phase, the student answers the question papers consistently and in a specific order. They have to be judged on the organization of the answer sheets given i.e. on the process of answering and the final evaluation is done. The answers to the questions of the students will be graded by the teacher according to the order of the process and then the final evaluation will be done.

4. Product Evaluation or, Outcome Evaluation:-

After a student is enrolled in a program, the evaluation process that determines the student's success in that program is called outcome evaluation. i.e. job completion evaluation. such as,

(a) The whole program is evaluated by looking at the answer determined at the end of the student-made part in solving any mathematical problem.

(b) Animal cell or plant cell diagram is evaluated by looking at the complete picture.

(c) The evaluation of the student is based on the percentage marks obtained in the final examination.

5. Achievement Evaluation:- 

Competence generally refers to the ability to perform a task. Again a person can acquire this skill in two ways. One who is born with special powers with the help of which he can perform certain tasks in a particular field. On the other hand one can perform some tasks with training. Achievement evaluation is a type of measurement technique or management by which an individual's ability to perform tasks in a second field is measured. That is, the objective to measure the subjective change in the learner's personal life as a result of controlled training, over a specified period of time, is called the Achievement evaluation. 

Organizational forms of Achievement evaluation can be divided primarily into two categories.

(a) Tests of Standardized Aptitude :- Tests which have a sound understanding of reliability, validity etc. and the scores obtained from them are comparable and constructed following appropriate rules and principles while preparing the test, are called Tests of Standardized Aptitude.

(b) Teacher-made test :- In the case where the teacher prepares tests suitable for the class without following the specific rules and principles of preparation of the test, that type of test is called teacher-made test.

6. Diagnostic Evaluation:- 

Many times it is seen that students find it difficult to understand and learn a concept. Differences in this difficulty can be seen in individuals, subjects and classes. Identifying these difficulties in students is essential to make the teaching-learning process effective. It can be determined by diagnostic tests. An assessment prepared based on a thorough analysis of the specific skills required to perform a task successfully and the common mistakes students make is called a Diagnostic Evaluation.

Define evaluation. Write the characteristics of evaluation. What are the different methods of evaluation? Discuss the importance of evaluation.

Definition of Evaluation 
Features of Evaluation
Methods of Evaluation
Importance of Evaluation 




Definition of Evaluation:- 


The general meaning of the word evaluation is "the act of assigning value". The term of evaluation has come to be associated in the field of education with the term educational evaluation. Literally, therefore, educational assessment is the process of assigning value to the future behavior of the student in the context of past behavior in education, relative to current behavior.

Modern pedagogy is well-established in combining philosophical, psychological, scientific, social, ethical and technical conclusions. Educational evaluation is therefore an attempt or means of measuring the social development of the child. Therefore, educational evaluation is a complex process with which to impose an overall effect on the various behaviors of the learner and which is acceptable to the society, the individual or both.

In order to measure the multifaceted changes of the student as a whole, the mechanistic technique and theoretical basis of the measurement have been adopted to determine the degree of achievement of the educational goals. So Wesley said, "Evaluation is a total and final estimate."

Emphasis on the characteristics of the educational process, educators define educational evaluation as a consistent process that assesses how far students have progressed toward the educational goals and assesses proficiency - it is called educational evaluation. This assessment assesses and evaluates the qualitative and quantitative value of student behavior.

The inclusion of evaluation in the educational process can be said that the technique applied to judge the outcome of the learning-teaching process or to determine the standard or to analyze the comparative judgment is called evaluation. So by analyzing the definition of Quillen and Hanna in broad sense we get -
(a) Evaluation is a technique that determines the standard of overall judgment of the child's behavior.
(b) Evaluation is the strategy to determine the progressive development of the student.
(c) Evaluation is the pace-determining mechanism of teaching and learning.
(d) Assessment of student proficiency – Qualitative and quantitative measurement of it are evaluation techniques.
(e) Evaluation is the management that develops and reveals the whole personality of the student.
(f) Evaluation is a system that constitutes a collaborative effort between students-teachers-parents.

According to the Mudaliar Commission, evaluation measures student's attitude, interest, thinking, health and work habits and social adaptability in extra-curricular aspects along with determining moral aptitude.

Characteristics of Evaluation:- (Features of Evaluation)


'Education' is an act or process. Just as every work or process requires evaluation, so too is evaluation essential in the learning process. The characteristics of educational evaluation are –

1. Evaluation is an integral part of the learning-teaching process. Evaluation controls quality at each level of this process.

2. Learning is conducted unit wise. So evaluation is curriculum based.

3. Evaluation is a key process that helps students learn and teachers manage lessons in the classroom.

4. Evaluation is formative and it validates student learning.

5. Evaluation is the remedial process by which the learner achieves desired abilities and achieves achievement or proficiency.

6. Evaluation is objective and is always goal oriented as it is conducted with reference to the multifaceted goals of education.

7. Evaluation is implemented in different ways. The same behavior of the student is evaluated in different ways depending on the different goals and objectives.

8. Evaluation is always progressing in relation to learning goals and student learning experiences.

9. Evaluation is a complex process. Evaluation is a complex but holistic process of assessment as a learner's behavior is judged by evaluating the significance of its various aspects and based on these judgments the assessment of the learner's proficiency is determined. That is, evaluation is a process based on student ability.

10. Evaluation is a continuous process. Because evaluation guides the student through his or her learning to the overall developmental level or his or her intended goals.

11. Evaluation encourages student self-learning. As the student can assess his/her own merit in proper assessment, his/her education can progress in the prescribed way.

12. Evaluation is a determinant of student weakness.

13. Evaluation expresses proficiency both innately and quantitatively.

Different techniques of evaluation:- (Methods of Evaluation)


In order to accurately assess student learning in the classroom, multifaceted data should be collected. It is not possible to assess the student by means of a single effort in any subject. Various behavioral changes occur in students through education. Various techniques are used to assess these changes. Sometimes more than one technique must be used to measure a behavioral change.

The evaluation methods or techniques used in teaching-learning are –
1. Examination
2. Test
3. Data Collection
4. observation
5. Interview
6. home inspection

Importance of Evaluation :- (Significance of Evaluation)


A learner gradually grows and develops through a continuous and changing process of learning. The evaluation process makes this learning process ideal and an integral part of the student's life. Although this evaluation process has varied from ancient times to the present day, its importance has increased over time. The importance of the evaluation process in education is manifold.

1. A holistic evaluation of the learner is needed to accurately assess the changes occurring in the learning process.

2. Evaluation makes students judge irrational changes by aligning them with the goals and objectives of today's education.

3. The objective evaluation system of modern education has also changed and expanded.

4. Evaluation is needed to judge the true significance of a student's multifaceted behaviors.

5. Evaluation brings variety to classroom learning.

6. Evaluation also determines the accuracy of the curriculum prescribed for students.

7. Evaluation is the determinant of the future program of the student.

8. Evaluation determines the application of learned knowledge and the accuracy of skills.

9. The evaluation system helps in determining the competence of the educational administrator. Again, evaluation determines the appropriateness of education management.

10. Evaluation helps in managing the proper education of backward students.

11. Evaluation helps students learn better.

12. Evaluation motivates students in multifaceted learning.

13. Evaluation is needed to determine the appropriateness of the methods and techniques that the teacher is using in the classroom for student learning.

What is Small Group Discussion? Discuss the advantages and limitations of small group discussion.

Merits and demerits of Small Group Discussion. 




Small Group Discussion - Concept :-

One type of structured group discussion is the selected group discussion or panel discussion. A purposefully selected group of people is called a panel. This selective group discussion is the mass collaborative social process inherent in traditional classroom instruction in education. Currently, this panel is seen discussing various problems of public life on television and Radio. Today, such discussions are very popular in people's lives and education. 

A discussion organized on one topic only is called a selected group discussion or small group discussion. These group discussions are very effective in organizing discussions on the topic when a topic is of a very complex nature or controversial. This discussion can be between teachers and students in the education system. 

LIST OF ALL NOTES / PROJECTS : CLICK HERE

Merits / advantages of Small Group Discussion :-

The importance or advantages of small group discussion are –

1. Participating in the panel increases the thinking power and reasoning power of the students.

2. Students learn to actively participate in interactive discussions.

3. To collect data by expanding the scope of the content -
(a) Learns to read other books.
(b) learns to give importance to educational aspects within the newspaper.
(c) Learns to accept advice from experts.

4. Gains analytical knowledge of content.

5. Increases students' confidence.

6. Learns to form decisions from controversial issues.

7. Among non-panel students also -
(a) Increases interest and attention.
(b) learns to analyze the subject.
(c) Can participate in arguments and debates.
(d) Question formulation ability increases.
(e) Learns to consider summaries from discussion.

Demerits / limitations of Small Group Discussion :-


Disadvantages of small group discussion are –

1. Teachers cannot accept discussion on all parts of the subject as a learning process.

2. As it is a specialized learning method, it is suitable for use in particular cases, not universally.

3. It is not practical in classrooms with heterogeneous students. Those who are backward in education show no interest here.

4. Normal classroom discipline is disrupted, which in turn disrupts normal classroom learning.

5. Lots of external topics may enter the classroom. 

6. Only a few students avail and benefit from this.

Teaching Strategy : Meaning and definition , features and basic principles.  

What is teaching strategy? Discuss the main features of teaching strategies. Discuss the principles of developing teaching strategies.




Concept of teaching strategy:-


Strategy is the English equivalent which is widely used in the field of war or army. But nowadays the term strategy is used by pedagogues and sociologists as a social process. The use of the word strategy is especially noticeable in class teaching.

According to B.O. Smith, a teaching strategy is a pattern or style of teaching that helps to achieve specific learning outcomes. Purposefully determined and adopted action plans are teaching strategies.

Selection of appropriate strategies for delivery of learning experiences and organization of teacher-student activities helps to achieve effective curriculum content and curricular objectives.

LIST OF ALL NOTES / PROJECTS : CLICK HERE

Key Features of Teaching Strategies:-

    
1. One of the characteristics of teaching techniques is to ensure the maximum performance of a student and to develop the will to perform.

2. Teaching techniques must develop the ability to think clearly.

3. This will broaden the range of interests of the students.

4. Teaching strategies that maintain the principles of discipline and cooperation will create opportunities for students to participate in a variety of independently undertaken activities.

5. Teaching strategies will create desirable opportunities for students to apply the acquired knowledge in practical situations.

6. Teaching strategies will teach students how to use a variety of reading aids in a lesson.

7. Strategies will be adopted depending on the intelligence level of the students.

8. Teaching strategies must balance individual activities with group collaborative activities.

Principles of Developing Teaching Strategies:-


1. Selection Policy:-
Particular importance should be given to the elements on which teaching strategies depend to enrich the teaching-learning environment. These are - student ability, access to various resources, early stage behavior, presence of institutional environment, quality of teacher preparation, objectives to be achieved and nature of curriculum content etc.

2. Motivation Policy :-
Teaching is the basis of motivation. That is why the teacher has to choose the strategy through all judgments. A variety of positive incentives, such as praise, rewards, should be used more. Because they are specially designed for students. On the other hand, negative stimuli, such as punishment, reprimand, etc., cause a long delay in awakening. Applying them often reduces the interest of the students in learning.

LIST OF ALL NOTES / PROJECTS : CLICK HERE

3. Basic Principles Policy:-
When a teacher adopts the right approach to teaching, he must use and follow the basic principles of teaching. These are simple to complex, known to unknown, whole to part, concrete to abstract and concrete to general.

4. Principle of Variation :-
Teaching and learning strategies can be of various types and they can provide different fields of activity for teachers and students. Such as observation, collection of various topics and information, game-based activities, educational games, educational trips, drama staging and role-playing, ascending-descending learning, problem-solving learning, etc.

5. Policy of Relationship with Environment :-
The socio-economic and cultural environment surrounding the school should be considered as one of the most important aspects of teaching to make learning strong and meaningful. The teacher will in this case build a relation of the curriculum content with all these environmental elements. For example, in the case of urban studies, he can make the learning experiences of the students more lively and robust by visiting different municipalities , etc.

6. Principle of Response:-
Receiving daily feedback or being aware of feedback is an essential technique in the teaching learning process. A continuous assessment process plays an important role in providing feedback, through which the strengths and weaknesses of the learning process can be easily identified.

7. Principle of personal differences :- 
One of the most important teaching strategies is to give individual attention to each student and arrange them according to their abilities. One of the important approaches and strategies of education is to provide education according to the needs of intelligent children and remedial education for children with low intelligence.

8. Principles of holistic development of students:-
While formulating teaching strategies, one must keep in mind whether they are conducive to the overall development of students. Co-curricular activities should also be included in the school curriculum. These can include a variety of activities. For example - school conference activities, beautification of school environment, creative activities, celebration of special days, national days - etc. Such strategy building is very useful for the overall development of the students.

Reading assignment : Definition , features , advantages and disadvantages. 

What is reading assignment? Discuss the features of reading assignments. Write the advantages and disadvantages of reading assignments.




Concept / Definition of Reading Assignment:-


The two main components of student performance in education are reading and writing. At the beginning of education, reading and writing gradually come into the life of the student. Our speech begins with the combination of different parts inside the oral cavity, the airway, the nostrils and the oral cavity. Learning the alphabet begins by combining speaking with the alphabet. Then gradually the student gets used to forming sentences from words and words.
Active reading makes students attentive and interested in learning. Reading assignments are therefore an individual focused process.

Features of Reading Assignment:-

Features of reading assignments are –
1. Enhances mental skills of students.
2. Analytical reading enhances students' personal skills.
3. It deals with all subjects and provides knowledge from all subjects.
4. The student independently selects the reading material. But here the advice and guidance of teachers is necessary.

Disadvantages / Demerits of Reading Assignment:-

Disadvantages of reading assignments are –
1. Reading assignments are a one-way street for learning; So this learning is limited to the educational process. 
2. Reading assignments become meaningless when students gain hands-on experience and make decisions.
3. The knowledge acquired by the student in reading is limited to a few languages. If the teacher's explanation is added, then only it can be complete, otherwise half the knowledge is gained.
4. Here only knowledge develops, other dimensions do not develop.
5. There will be no ideal learning without ideal reading material.
6. In many cases, the reading assignments instill in the students a sense that the teacher's teaching is not effective. Because, they often cannot reach the level of understanding while reading.
7. Negative reading assignments develop negative values, habits, attitudes and personalities in students.

Difference between Lecture method and Demonstration method :-



Difference between Lecture method and Demonstration method :-

There are certainly some differences between lecture method and demonstration method. Both lecture method and demonstration method are widely used in classroom teaching. Among them, the lecture method is more prevalent than other methods. Nowadays, as the number of students in the classroom increases, so does the use of lecture methods. Besides, the method of rendering is also being used in schools. This method is more useful for teaching many students simultaneously. These methods can be used easily and quickly in the general school environment. But these methods differ in practical terms. The differentiating aspects of these two methods are –

LIST OF ALL NOTES / PROJECTS : CLICK HERE

1. Lecture method can be used at some level of demonstration method. But in the lecture method , the demonstration method cannot be used.
  
2. The teacher is active in the lecture method. But in demonstration method, teacher and student are active together.

3. Language is the medium of instruction in the lecture method. But there are many mediums of teaching in demonstration method. Eg - language, learning materials ,  blackboard questionnaires - etc.

4. As language is the only medium in the lecture method, students' knowledge about the subject is not correct and accurate all the time. But in the demonstration method, subjective knowledge is embodied in the classroom through the use of different teaching materials , blackboards - etc. As a result, students get accurate knowledge.

5. Practical application of knowledge gained through lecture method is not appropriate. But the practical application of the acquired knowledge is taught in the demonstration method and becomes appropriate over time.

6. Many times students become inattentive and conventional in the lecture method. But in the demonstration method students are always focused on the lesson.

7. In the lecture method the learner cannot express his own curiosity or desire to know. But as a result of mutual discussion between teachers and students in the demonstration method, the students' desire to know is fulfilled and their own thinking field is expanded.

8. The lecture method is a one-way process. But demonstration is a two-way process.

9. The lesson can be completed very quickly in the lecture method. But demonstration method takes relatively long time.

10. The cost of the lecture method is very low. But the cost of demonstration method is relatively high. Because, this method requires many educational materials.

Lecture Method : Definition , Merits , Demerits & Importance. 

Concept / Definition of Lecture Method:-

Advantages / Merits of Lecture Method :-

Disadvantages / Demerits of Lecture Method :-

Significance / Importance of Lecture Method :-




Concept / Definition of Lecture Method:-


In general, when the teacher presents the learning content to the students in the classroom through language alone, it is called the lecture method. When a person on a stage presents a subject to an audience, his presentation is called a speech. In this case the audience may or may not accept the content. Again, the audience may be engaged in other activities or leave the place.
But when teachers use this method for learning in the classroom, its importance or necessity becomes completely different than before. Because, here the teacher uses this method for the proper learning of the students and to conduct his own ideal teaching method.

LIST OF ALL NOTES / PROJECTS : CLICK HERE

Advantages / Merits of Lecture Method :-


1. Teaching process can be easily conducted in the classroom.

2. Lessons or syllabus can be completed before the specified time.

3. The teacher can plan the lesson according to his / her own way.

4. Subject knowledge and general knowledge and practical knowledge can be presented together in the classroom.

5. Lessons can be presented in the classroom only if there is an idea of the lesson of the day.

6. Many students can be taught simultaneously in lecture method.

7. Lecture method makes it possible to easily measure the knowledge gained by the students.

8. Lecture method is very easy to use in presentation and interpretation of lessons.

9. If necessary, the lesson can be made more interesting by using some charts, pictures etc.

LIST OF ALL NOTES / PROJECTS : CLICK HERE

Disadvantages / Demerits of Lecture Method :-


1. The approach of the lecture method is only teacher-centred. There is no student participation here. Thus, it is a one-way process.

2. The student's level of understanding is not assessed here by the teacher. As a result, the ideal learning environment is not prepared here.

3. Any content is listened to by students here. But he can't think too much about it.

4. Here teachers become more active in insisting on completing the day's lessons at the fixed time. As a result, the student does not get a chance to think independently here.

5. Here only knowledge is practiced. Other intellectual, emotional and cognitive aspects of learning are not prepared.

6. A monotonous atmosphere is created in the classroom; As a result students become inattentive.

7. In many cases the learning objective is disrupted.

8. Lecture method does not enable the development of appropriate subject-specific knowledge-understanding-application-skills.

9. The mental development of the student is disturbed.

10. The teacher-student relationship is almost always negative. Students are attracted differently to teachers by following different physical, verbal and practical characteristics, which are often contrary to the learning objectives.

11. A full portion of the content cannot be taught in this manner.

12. This method is not effective at primary and secondary level.

Significance / Importance of Lecture Method :-


Discussing the above advantages and disadvantages, it can be said that the lecture method is very important in classroom teaching despite some obstacles. Whatever teaching method is used in the classroom, no method except the lecture method can be applied in the classroom. Hence proper use of this method is useful and important in all classroom teaching methods. For example –

1. The proper use of this method in lesson delivery and interpretation must be mastered by every teacher and can be properly applied in the classroom.

2. This method can be presented in the classroom using only lectures and minimal teaching aids (such as blackboards).

3. The lecture method is, however, necessary to re-present the subject after feedback.

4. Lecture method has to be explained and presented to make the topic relevant to real life.

5. This method is used for rapid teaching of multiple students simultaneously.

6. This method is particularly useful for teacher-students to describe their own experiences.

Demonstration Method : Definition , Features , Merits and Demerits.

Concept / Definition of Demonstration Method.

Features of Demonstration Method.

Merits of Demonstration Method.

Demerits of Demonstration Method.




Concept / Definition of Demonstration Method.

An important and useful method in classroom teaching is the Demonstration Method.
The method in which the teacher presents the fixed content in the classroom teaching with the help of appropriate teaching methods based on the prior knowledge of the students according to the necessary tests, examples and discussions of real situations is called the Demonstration Method.

The Demonstration Method has been widely applied in the modern education system, replacing the lecture method. This method idealizes student-learning in the correct application of the delivery method in the teaching process. Therefore, the Demonstration Method is more accurate and useful in classroom teaching than the lecture method.

LIST OF ALL NOTES / PROJECTS : CLICK HERE

Key features of the Demonstration Method.


1. Simultaneous participation of teacher and student is seen in the Demonstration Method.

2. As the student carefully observes the teacher's teaching, the teacher also measures the student's level of understanding.

3. Teaching materials, learning and students are used individually depending on the subject.

4. As the teacher presents correct explanations, examples and arguments in the conclusions/theories reached by teaching, so the students also get correct knowledge according to correct arguments, usages, examples and real worlds.

5. This method of teaching in the classroom keeps the teacher and students active together.

6. Students are very interested and attentive in the entire teaching activity. At the same time, they can understand the usefulness of the lesson in real life.

7. The subject can be thoroughly presented by the teacher in the classroom.

8. Students can gain overall knowledge of the subject. They can also rationally reject and refine any of their misconceptions.

9. Content can be presented to many students simultaneously.

LIST OF ALL NOTES / PROJECTS : CLICK HERE

Advantages / Merits of  Demonstration Method.


1. The Demonstration Method is easy to use. This method can be implemented from small teaching lights, blackboards and lesson plans.

2. The Demonstration Method costs less. But teachers need to think and study effectively.

3. Demonstration Method can be implemented within the specific classroom time frame.

4. Demonstration Method consists of lecture method, question and answer method, test method, problem solving method - etc.

5. In this method, students develop thinking skills, observation skills, comprehension skills and decision-making skills through listening and visual teaching.

6. Students participate equally in the teacher's lesson. As a result they get used to active learning.

7. Here one learns to apply the book based knowledge in a real practical direction.

8. The correct understanding and knowledge of the content is developed in Demonstration Method.

9. The teacher-student relationship can be more healthy in the classroom in Demonstration Method.

10. Students with different abilities can participate equally in lessons. As a result, backward students also benefit greatly from this Demonstration Method.

11. Students develop learning oriented thinking and creative skills.

Disadvantages / Demerits of Demonstration Method.


1. Even if the teacher-student relationship is good, students in many cases do not meet their own learning needs.

2. Even if the teacher conducts the lesson efficiently, he cannot pay proper attention to the individual needs and difficulties of the students.

3. As there is less opportunity to discuss the subject matter, it becomes difficult for all students especially those who are intermediate or behind in learning progress to participate properly in class learning.

4. Again, if the teacher plans lessons for the backward students, then the advanced students will become inattentive in the class.

5. If the teacher fails to apply this method or can't show the skill at different levels, then there is a lack of discipline in the class.

Difference between primary group and secondary group:-



Difference between primary group and secondary group:-

Several differences exist between primary and secondary groups. The differences between primary and secondary groups are –

1. Difference based on concept:-
Primary groups refer to groups based on face-to-face, direct and deep relationships and companionship.
On the other hand, secondary group refers to the indirect, external, contractually bound related group formed out of necessity.

2. Example :-
Examples of primary groups are – family, inner group, sports team – etc.
On the other hand, examples of secondary groups are - political parties, states - etc.

3. Origin :-
Primary groups are formed spontaneously or voluntarily.
On the other hand, secondary groups are purposefully formed.

4. Size :-
Primary groups are small in size. The smaller the group size, the stronger the correlation.
On the other hand, secondary groups are very large in size. There are also groups that can live all over the world.

5. Relation of Members :-
Primary groups are formed based on primary relationships. This primary relationship is face-to-face, intimate, personal, cohesive.
On the other hand, secondary relationships are predominant in secondary groups. Such relationship is indirect, external, contractual.

LIST OF ALL NOTES / PROJECTS : CLICK HERE

6. Durability :-
The primary group is relatively long-lived.
On the other hand, secondary groups are usually short-lived or temporary. The sustainability of such groups largely depends on the nature and scope of the objective.

7. Physical Proximity :-
Physical proximity is considered essential in primary groups. A face-to-face relationship does not exist without physical proximity.
On the other hand, physical proximity is necessary but not essential in secondary groups. Moreover, physical proximity is not always possible in large secondary groups.

8. Geographical Range :-
Primary group members are residents of specific geographic areas.
But, members of secondary groups tend to inhabit relatively large geographical areas.

9. Nature of Cooperation :-
The cooperation that occurs between primary group members is largely direct in nature. For example, mother's support towards children.
On the other hand, cooperation between subordinate group members is largely indirect in nature. E.g. - An absentee member only pays the annual subscription which is contributed.

10. Nature of social control and means of control:-
The nature of primary group social control is largely informal. Values, ethos, folk policy, moral code, public opinion etc. are used as means of social control.
On the other hand, the nature of social control of subordinate groups is statutory. Most of the regulations in these cases are written in the form of laws. The means of control are therefore law, police, force etc.

11. Membership :-
Primary group membership is fairly mandatory. As such, each individual is born into his family without his knowledge.
On the other hand, membership in secondary groups is voluntary. Generally, a person cannot be forced to accept membership of a secondary group against his will. However, as an exception, even though the state is a secondary group, its membership is binding on the individual.

12. Group interest:-
The group interest of the primary group is common. Most of the basic needs of life are met by the primary group.
On the other hand, secondary groups are formed around a particular interest. So it is called Special Interest Group.

Secondary Group : Definition , Features & Importance.  

1. Concept of Secondary Group.
2. Features of Secondary Group.
3. Importance of Secondary Group.




Concept / Definition of Secondary Group :-


Secondary groups are one of the elements of modern society. Secondary groups bear the opposite characteristics of the primary group in nature. Such groups are mainly formed to serve specific purposes. Basically it is made to fulfill various and diverse interests in modern life. Sometimes they are called Special Interest Groups. Interrelationships between members of this group are usually devoid of sincerity or intimacy. Members rarely have face-to-face relationships. Indirect relationships are formed between individuals focused solely on the pursuit of special interests, but are not as deep as primary groups. Moreover, only a few of the members of this group have personal acquaintances - not as extensive as the primary group.

In terms of demographic structure, the members of these secondary groups are not bound by the same emotional ties and a sense of alienation from the core is operative among them. The cooperation that occurs between members of this group is indirect in nature. Numerous secondary -groups exist in society like industrial groups, banks, political parties etc.

We can say about the secondary group, formed with special purpose, a group without deep heart relations among the members, that is the secondary group. It is called a product of modern society. In terms of characteristics, secondary groups carry the opposite characteristics of primary groups.

Characteristics / Features of secondary groups:-


1. Artificiality :- Secondary group is an artificial organization. It is not created spontaneously or voluntarily. People create it on purpose.

2. Magnitude :- Secondary groups are generally magnified. Its membership is not limited. A class or caste, Rotary Club, religious organizations etc. are examples of large scale secondary groups.

3. Predominance of secondary relationship :- Secondary relationship refers to the indirect, external, contractual, non-exclusive relationship of the members. There is no personal intimacy or solidarity in such relationships. Such relationships are formed only by keeping the needs in mind. Examples of such secondary relationships are relationships between employee-customer, speaker-audience etc.

McIver and Page stated about the nature of the relationship between members of a secondary group that the division that occurs between members of a secondary group is class division.

4. Special Objectives :- Secondary groups are usually formed around specific objectives. The key here is purpose; Personal relationships are secondary. The role of subordinate group members is limited in terms of the salience or priority of the objective. It goes without saying that such groups are formed without interest or purpose. So it is called Special Interest Group.

5. Membership :- As membership in most primary groups is not voluntary by the individual, this is not the case with secondary groups. Accepting or rejecting membership of a secondary group is largely a matter of individual choice. He can join any sub-group as per his need and desire; If the need is satisfied or if he does not like it, he can leave his membership. However, in some cases this exclusion of membership may not depend on the will of the individual. However, membership of secondary groups is not mandatory, and is largely a matter of individual preference. As an exception, the state. 

6. Organizational Structure:- Every secondary -group has a statutory organizational structure by which its activities are regulated. Due to its large membership and size, an organizational aspect is essential and it is desirable to be statutory.

7. Durability :- Secondary groups are relatively temporary in nature. It usually disappears when its objectives are fulfilled. Its sustainability depends on the nature of the objective. If a secondary group's objectives are found to be diverse and time-consuming to fulfill, they may be sustained a little longer.

8. No need for physical proximity :- Physical proximity is not required in case of members of a minor group. It is possible for the group to survive without it. That is, in this case, the role of contact in relation to social relations is very insignificant. For example, the International Red Cross Society is a secondary group. Its members are spread all over the world.

9. Nature of Control :- Secondary group mainly controls the behavior of its members through some statutory mechanism. Interrelationships among subordinate groups are usually governed by well-defined terms and conditions. The activities of these secondary groups are mechanical or artificial in nature. Here he maintains his control through law, police, courts etc. Moral control Non-statutory means are secondary in this regard, as they are not very effective in controlling the behavior of members.

10. Indirect Communication :- Direct communication between secondary group members is almost nonexistent or not much needed. Since the origin of such groups is not based on face-to-face direct identification i.e. primary relationships, the interaction of these members is not sincere or intimate. Members do not gather in secondary groups unless necessary for personal identification or to gain closeness. Media such as mail, telephone, TV, newspaper etc. act as means of communication among them.

11. Not very effective on personality :- Primary group is said to be the main form of personality, secondary group is not. It is said that the secondary group has no special influence on personality.

12. Indirect Cooperation :- The nature of cooperation of members in such groups is indirect. In all these groups, people independently engage in different activities. Activities are performed through interdependence. This indirect cooperation makes the form of division of labor evident.

13. Status of an individual is role or activity dependent :- The status of the members of these groups is not dependent on their birth characteristics or personal qualities. Their social status depends on the nature of the roles they play. That is, the individual's status in this group is role or activity dependent.

Importance of Secondary Groups :-


1. Secondary groups are large in size and often have members spread across the globe. A person can widen his circle of contacts by becoming a member of the secondary group. Besides, a person removes ugliness by broadening his outlook, attitude etc. His range of knowledge increases. His thinking, enthusiasm etc. can gain new dimensions. The individual transcends his small field and appears in a larger human field. Narrow attitudes are refined in this vast field. Generosity grows in his heart. In this case, his mentality is particularly influenced by contact with different people. His places of inertia are freed. Therefore, it can be said that the secondary group frees the individual from his narrowness.

2. Certain decades or centuries ago the sphere of livelihood and income of the individual was limited. During this time the main livelihood was agriculture. But with the massive expansion of industry, commerce, cities, etc., the subordinate groups have expanded the sphere of various opportunities before the people. Through these, people get the opportunity to use their thinking and working talents properly in various places. He can work according to his choice and ability. 

3. Subordinate groups regulate the behavior of their members mainly through statutory means. Statutory agencies take a relatively strict stance in this regard and in many cases non-compliance is punishable. So the person obeys or is bound to obey them. Thus, subordinate groups play a particularly effective role in social control and individual discipline.

4. Different secondary groups are formed with different objectives . Individuals are members of different secondary groups simultaneously. He can accumulate different knowledge and experience in different secondary groups. Thus the culture aspect of the individual is specially developed.

5. In modern society, subordinate groups adopt various measures to achieve their goals. In many cases they utilize the knowledge of modern science and technology. Specialized material systems like division of labor also play a special role in this. However, secondary groups play a special role in enhancing the individual's performance, mastery and mental excellence.

6. In the turbulent lifestyle of modern society, individuals often suffer from physical and mental insecurities. In this case, as the individual can satisfy his various needs due to being a member of different groups at the same time, he enjoys more security by being associated with different secondary groups.

7. Secondary groups have an organizational aspect. This organizational aspect keeps track of whether the group's procedures, rules and regulations are being followed properly or not. The effectiveness of this organizational aspect cannot lead to chaos in the group. Subgroups thus maintain cohesion among its members.

8. As the secondary group fulfills various objectives of the individual on the one hand, it also sets various responsibilities and duties before the individual as a member of the group. The individual fulfills all these duties and responsibilities properly. Thus by entering the minor group one becomes responsible and dutiful.

9. Although secondary groups do not have as many functional roles as primary groups in socialization and personality formation, they do have many. There are certain experiences that the individual gains from the minority group, which become very defining of his personality. Again in the case of socialization it can be seen that an individual who is not very socialized by primary groups in early childhood becomes highly socialized later by the influence of secondary groups.

Finally, in today's modern era, the role of secondary groups is very important in the implementation of civilization and culture of human society. Such a group is very well suited to a society with high demands in terms of the social needs of the individual. Hence its acceptance is increasing.
