Our work in India

NEIEA

In India we carry out our work as NEIEA ( The New Equitable and Innovative Educational Association). NEIEA was officially registered on April 18, 2022 as a section 8a non-profit educational organization. The failure of education during the pandemic highlighted the urgent need for a transformative model that could address shortcomings, ensure sustainability, and promote equity and inclusivity. The focus was on prioritizing education for marginalized groups, including girls, out-of-school, and dropout children, those requiring special education, Madrasa youth, and students attending low-quality private and public schools. The goal was to create a new and innovative educational system to meet the diverse needs of all learners.Traditional education often featured one-way teaching, emphasizing rote memorization from textbooks and stifling critical thinking and collaborative learning.After extensive discussions, a consensus emerged, favoring Discourse Oriented Pedagogy (DOP) as a superior educational approach to the previously predominant memorization-based method. Dr. K. N. Anandan, the founder of DOP, led informative sessions to elucidate this preferred pedagogy.

Discourse-Oriented Pedagogy (DOP) stands as an innovative educational approach defined by a set of core principles:

Harnessing Innate Expertise: DOP taps into the innate, unspoken knowledge that is uniquely human.

Tailored Pedagogy: DOP customizes its teaching methods to suit specific subjects, themes, academic levels, and individual learners.

Facilitating Knowledge Construction: DOP’s central aim is to enable the creation of knowledge systems, encompassing not only language but also fundamental subjects like Mathematics and Sciences.

Cognitive Empowerment: DOP challenges traditional, skill-based language teaching methodologies by highlighting the human mind’s remarkable capacity to construct knowledge.

Eclectic Inspiration: Drawing inspiration from a diverse array of disciplines including cognitive psychology, theoretical linguistics, Gestalt theories, Multiple intelligences theories, whole language, and critical pedagogy, DOP adopts an eclectic approach.

Inclusive Language Pedagogy: Importantly, DOP is not confined to teaching a particular language or restricted solely to children; it extends its applicability to all learners, regardless of age.

In essence, Discourse-Oriented Pedagogy places a strong emphasis on personalized, knowledge-centric, and inclusive teaching strategies, drawing from a rich tapestry of educational theories and practices.
