Exploring the Knowledge Corner

        Visiting the library was a valuable experience for me as a future English/ History teacher. Although I didn’t read the books, but explored different sections and noted useful resources for later reference. I found atlases and materials on the Great World Wars, including war diaries and bibliographies that seem rich in historical content. Before visiting the library, I had no idea of the allocation of the books according to their section, but as the librarian explained so well, I could identify the placement of the books according to my needs.

        Class 7–10 history textbooks were available and can support classroom teaching.  Specific history books were in the 900s, while general books are in the 200s. Books on teaching and learning history are in 907, and history dictionaries are placed in 909. Biographies and country-related texts are found in 920, while Bhutan’s history is in 954.98. There was also a discussion room for micro-teaching practice, which I saw for the first time.

        I also noticed journals, magazines, and documents from WHO and UNICEF, which could offer global perspectives. This visit helped me understand how references/resources are categorized and gave me a clear idea of where to find materials when needed.
