In order to make the learning of social science more enjoyable and effective, there is a need for innovations in teaching methods. During Social Science class, students begin to discuss whether a mobile tower should be allowed to install in the proximity of their school or not.

A student says that the radiation from the tower would make students sick. Another student says I heard on the news that mobile towers do not make people sick. As a teacher, I would motivate students to collect evidence that will help them assess the situation objectively.

• Children learn in a variety of ways—through experience, making and doing things, experimentation, reading, discussion, asking, listening, thinking and reflecting, and expressing oneself in speech, movement, or writing—both individually and with others. They require opportunities of all these kinds in the course of their development.
• In this discussion, a teacher should motivate students to gain real hand experiences by collecting the evidence for the mobile tower and their radiations and later on discuss these things. From that, they will gain knowledge about it and understand the situation practically.
• Such experiences and post-experience activities would be valuable for them. Language is key to organizing experiences. Hence, there should be proper coordination between the kind of experience and the level of language development.

Thus it is cleared that as a teacher you would motivate students to collect evidence that will help them assess the situation objectively.
