MERI Journal of Education (MERI JE)

Since quite some time, we had been thinking of bringing out a ‘special issue’ and had been discussing what topic to take up which would interest all our readers. Earlier, we had organised Seminars and brought out the proceedings as ‘special issues’ on—Human Rights and Education, Swami Vivekanand and his Relevance to Teacher Education. A panel discussion on the topic ‘Rationale of Two-year B.ED. programme’, when it was a much debated issue, was organised in early 2006 and the views shared by eminent educationists were published in our April 2006 issue. Our sincere efforts have always been to keep our readers informed and updated. Then, one fine day, at a Seminar organised in the Department of Education, University of Delhi, Dr. Vikas Beniwal, Assistant Professor in the Department, asked if we would bring out a Special Issue on Dialogue. Well, it was a topic which merited serious thought. And we gave out a call, in our Oct. 2019, for the special issue on this topic. Dialogue in education is an important topic in the syllabus of B.Ed., as also an important concept which is understood in many ways as also misunderstood in many ways, even in the academic circles. We tend to use the term ‘Dialogue’ loosely—which includes talks, discussions, debates, conversations—in its ambit. Dialogue is used in many circumstances, occasions, places, which we will taste when we will go through the Articles on Dialogue. The Articles have been mainly written by the students of B.Ed. of the Department of Education, University of Delhi, under the expert guidance of Dr. Vikas Beniwal. Ms Pinky Yadav, an M.Ed. student also helped and interacted with the students of B.Ed. ,constantly mentoring them , which is quite apparent in the content and quality of the Articles.
