The above mentioned book is what we all depend on, but during hearing session of cases filed in Hon.High court, the experts (Question Setters) gave their opinion, justified their arguments from books like..

          “Education Psychology” --- Yogendra Sharma

So if possible we can go through them for best results..

·        Language 1 (30 Marks):

    This topic focus on the proficiencies related to the medium of instruction. Its nothing but our mother tongue, Tamil. As far as Tamil is concerned, Paper1 people need to be clear on TN government text books (samacheer kalvi) of classes from 1st to 5th also on difficulty level of 6th to 8th.

·        Language 2 (30 Marks):

                              This topic focus on the elements of language, communication and comprehension abilities. We can go through TN government text books of classes from 1st to 5thand as well as 6th to 8th for level of difficulty. Apart from these books, we can rely on some other books for efficiency in grammar and other skills.

                   “High School English Grammar & Comprehension”

                                                        By Wren and Martin

·        Mathematics and E.V.S (30 Marks):

                        This topic will focus on the concepts, problem solving abilities and pedagogical understanding of these subjects respectively. We can rely on prescribed syllabus of state government text books of samacheer kalvi from 1st to 5thand 6th to 8th as well for better outcome..

                                                PAPER - 2

·        Child Development & Pedagogy (30 Marks):

                                Here in this topic we will be focusing on Educational Psychology of teaching and learning, relevant to age group of 11 to 14 years. Its more than enough if we go through,

                

             “Psychology of learning and  Human development”

                        By Prof.K. Nagarajan & Prof.Srinivasan (By Ram Publishers)

During the hearing session of various cases filed in Hon.Highcourt, the experts (Question Setters) made use of some other books which we might not be knowing. But its up to us to go through them..

             “Advanced Educational Psychology” --- R.N.Sharma

            

             “Essentials of Educational Psychology” --- S.K.Mangal

             “Psychology of learning” --- Dr.Manivannan

             “Educational Psychology” --- Hans Raj Bhatia

·        Language 1 (30 Marks):

                   As far as Tamil is concerned, we are supposed to cover from 6th to 10th and difficulty level of 11th 7 12th. We can follow state government text books of samacheer kalvi. In all the TET exams which has been conducted before, all the questions are from above books only. So better to refer them, here ‘refer’ means Scanning each and every line of those books literally..

·        Language 2 (30 Marks):

                  In this topic we will focus on the elements of language, communication and comprehension abilities. We should make sure that we go through state government text books of classes from 6th to 10thas well as 11th and 12th in order to meet the level of difficulty. Besides these books, to acquire extra grammar knowledge its better to follow,

                          “High School English Grammar & Comprehension”

                                         By Wren and Martin

It is fact that our experts (Question Setters) use this book  90% for grammatical questions. For all English grammar related question in court hearing session, they submitted this book only as the evidence, since it is universally accepted.

·        Mathematics & Sciencs / Social Science (60 Marks):

                                 In Maths and Science part, there will be 30 questions from Mathematics and 30 questions from Science which includes sub divisions like Physics, Chemistry, Botany & Zoology respectively.. In order to excel in maths, we must start right from 6th to 8th and also 9th& 10th for level of difficulty. If we go through previous year question paper, there were theoretical questions from maths too!!!! So we are supposed to know not only mathematical operations but also mathematical facts in all aspects. Obviously we should master government samacheer kalvi text books by all means!! As far as Sciencs is concerned, same text books can be followed. We should take care of level of difficulty part, since previous year most questions were from linkage topics from lower level to higher level.

·        Social Science (60 Marks):

                      This topic will focus on social studies which includes Historu\y, Geography, Civics & Economics. Asusual better to go through TN government text books from 6th to 10th and linkage relating to higher secondary level.. Even the experts made use of government books alone. Obviously it will be better for us to follow what the question setters have followed, for better outcome..
