slide2. Concept Sensation is an inner experience aroused by the respective stimulus through sense organs.
It is the elementary raw material of our knowledge.
It is the simplest form of cognition.
According to Sully : Sensation is a simple psychical phenomenon resulting from the stimulation of the outer end of an afferent nerve, when this is propagated to the brain.
What is stimulus? – a force of any agent which excites a sense organ or the outer end of a sensory nerve.<br>
slide3. CHARACTERISTICS Sensation is the simplest unit of knowledge. It supplies the raw materials of knowledge.
It is aroused by the interaction of an external stimulus and the sense organ.
Every sensation implies a not-self as its cause.
Sensation gives us the knowledge of the external world.
It is a comparatively passive state of the mind. We do not create sensation. Sensation is forced upon us.
It is an objective mental state.<br>
slide4. CLASSIFICATION There are 3 types of sensation-
Organic sensation
Special sensation
Muscular or Motor sensation<br>
slide5. Organic Sensation These sensations are produced by internal organs
If there is any change or disturbance in the normal activities of the organs situated within the body , the changes when propagated to the brain , through the afferent nerves, we get organic sensation.
Examples: hunger, thirst, fatigue , liveliness . etc<br>
slide6. Special Sensation These sensations come to us through the different sense organs situated on the periphery of the body.
They originate from eyes(visual), ears (auditory), skin (tactual), nose( olfactory) and tongue( gustatory).
Examples: Sensations of colours, sounds, tastes, smells, pressures, heat, cold , etc.<br>
slide7. Muscular or Motor or Kinaesthetic Sensation It is the sensation that we get from the joints and tendons when we move our limbs.
It is produced by changes in the organs of movement viz., muscles, tendons and joints<br>
slide8. SENSATION IN EDUCATION Sense organs are the means of the child’s knowledge of the environment
The power of the sense organs of the child can be improved by training.
The child should be presented with the materials involving different types of sensations.
Sense training is necessary for his/her proper adjustment with the physical environment. It is the ground of his mental development.
Montessori method, kindergarten method , project method, excursions are important procedures of sense training.<br>
slide9. CONT. In Montessori method, the senses of the child are trained by didactic apparatus.
In the Kindergarten system, gifts and occupations, mother play and nursery songs are used for sense development.
In the project method , emphasis is laid on the principle of learning by doing.<br>
