Department of Social Sciences Language,Humanities and Social Sciences National Institute of Education Web site : www.nie.lk E-mail : [email protected] Printed by : Press National Institute of Education Maharagama Sri Lanka ii Message from the Director General ………………. With the primary objective of realizing the National Educational Goals recommended by the National Education Commission, the then prevalent content based curriculum was modernized, and the first phase of the new competency based curriculum was introduced to the eight year curriculum cycle of the primary and secondary education in Sri Lanka in the year 2007. The second phase of the curriculum cycle thus initiated was introduced to the education system in the year 2015 as a result of a curriculum rationalization process based on research findings and various proposals made by stake holders. Within this rationalization process the concepts of vertical and horizontal integration have been employed in order to build up competencies of students, from foundation level to higher levels, and to avoid repetition of subject content in various subjects respectively and furthermore, to develop a curriculum that is implementable and student friendly. The new Teachers’ Guides have been introduced with the aim of providing the teachers with necessary guidance for planning lessons, engaging students effectively in the learning teaching process, and to make Teachers’ Guides will help teachers to be more effective within the classroom.

The multi-billion dollar Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) appears to have driven a wedge between all-weather allies China and Pakistan. Sharp differences have emerged between the two countries over a $6.8 billion railway line project, which is part of the ambitious China- Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). The impasse has even led to an indefinite delay in the annual bilateral CPEC summit. This is not the first that CPEC has triggered a strain in the long-standing friendship between the two countries. China-Pakistan ties are in troubled waters these days because of following issues:- (a) Fallout Over Rail Project Pakistan has been expecting China to lend $6 billion at a concessional interest rate of less than 3 percent for the Main Line-1 project.

This curriculum is planned with the aim of avoiding individual and social weaknesses as well as in the way of thinking that the present day youth are confronted. When considering the system of education in Asia, Sri Lanka was in the forefront in the field of education a few years back. But at present the countries in Asia have advanced over Sri Lanka. Taking decisions based on the existing system and presenting the same repeatedly without a new vision is one reason for this backwardness. The officers of the National Institute of Education have taken courage to revise the curriculum with a new vision to overcome this situation. The objectives of the New Curriculum have been designed to enable the pupil population to develop their competencies by way of new knowledge through exploration based on their existing knowledge. A perfectly new vision in the teachers’ role is essential for this task. In place of the existing teacher-centred method, a pupil-centred method based on activities and competencies is expected from this new educa- tional process in which teachers should be prepared to face challenges.

Sri Lanka Introduction
SOS POLITICAL SCIENCE & PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION M.A. POLITICAL SCIENCE II SEM POLITICAL PHILOSOPHY:MORDAN POLITICAL THOUGHT, THEORY & CONTEMPORARY IDEOLOGIES (203) UNIT-III TOPIC NAME-INDIA’S RELATION WITH THE SRI LANKA INTRODUCTION India–Sri Lanka relations are diplomatic relations between India and Sri Lanka. Only 4% of Sri Lankans have a negative view on India, the lowest of all the countries surveyed by the Ipsos GlobalScan.[1] The two countries are also close on economic terms with India being the island's largest trading partner[2] and an agreement to establish a proto single market also under discussion at an advanced stage.[3] There are deep racial and cultural links between the two countries. India and Sri Lanka share a maritime border. India is the only neighbour of Sri Lanka, separated by the Palk Strait; both nations occupy a strategic position in South Asia and have sought to build a common security umbrella in the Indian Ocean.[4]Both India and Sri Lanka are republics within the Commonwealth of Nations. They have been however tested by the Sri Lankan Civil War and by the controversy of Indian intervention during the war. In recent years Sri Lanka has moved closer to China, especially in terms of naval agreements. India has signed a nuclear energy deal to improve relations. India made a nuclear energy pact with Sri Lanka in 2015.[ WHAT IS THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN INDIA AND SRI LANKA? There are deep racial and cultural linksbetween the two countries. India and Sri Lanka share a maritime border. India is the only neighbour of Sri Lanka, separated by the Palk Strait; both nations occupy a strategic position in South Asia and have sought to build a common security umbrella in the Indian Ocean.
