Research and documentation

How do children learn languages? How do they interpret natural phenomena like day and night? At what age do young children begin to understand highly abstract concepts like atoms and molecules? What images do terms like ‘democracy’ and ‘government’ evoke in their minds?

Textbooks are loaded with information and abstract concepts that children fail to assimilate or internalise. There is very little available data on how children of different age-groups in India learn and at what age they begin to understand such difficult concepts.

Eklavya conducts and commissions research studies and surveys on these aspects of children’s learning through direct field level interactions and its own educational programmes.
