2.3 Scheme of Study
In distance education system, in addition to self-learning, contact sessions are held to facilitate the learning
process of students. In this programme, where practical component is quite significant, the contact sessions
will comprise of counselling sessions for the theory and practical components. For the convenience of
study, the whole duration of these sessions is divided into two Spells/Contact Sessions which will be
conducted in the LSC or in identified Yoga training Centre.

3. HOW TO STUDY?
3.1 Theory Component
The students of distance education system are adult learners. Hence, the self-instructional materials are
written with the objective and style so as to make the reading interesting and easily understandable. A
schematic representation of the design of units is given below to facilitate your access to the contents.
As the scheme suggests, we have divided the units into sections for easy reading and better comprehension.
Each section is indicated distinctly by bold capital letters and each sub-section by relatively smaller but
bold letters. The significant divisions within sub-sections are in still smaller but bold letters so as to make
it easier for you to see their place within sub-sections. For purposes of uniformity, we have employed
the same scheme of divisions in every unit throughout the programme.
Please start reading from the very beginning of the block i.e. Block Introduction and then go through the
units. In each unit read the objectives, introduction and then the text. The objectives articulate briefly:
 What we have presented in the unit, and
 What we expect from you once you complete working on the unit.
The last section of each unit under the heading ‘Let Us Sum Up’ summarises the whole unit for purposes
of recapitulation and ready reference. We have self-check exercises under the caption ‘Check Your
Progress’ at a few places in each unit. Do not skip these exercises. The answers to these exercises are
mentioned at the end of the unit.

X.n Answers to Check Your Progress

* ‘X’ stands for the serial number of the unit concerned.

The theory courses comprises of booklets called blocks as mentioned in the section 2.2 on programme package
above. Each block has 3-5 chapters called units. The units are designed in such a way that the contents of later
units are based upon the contents of initial units. The practical course has two components, including Practical
Manuals and Log Book which provide a guide for the counselling sessions of the practical. You will be evaluated
on your participation during these practices and your records in the log book. Be sure to carry your log book
during the practical term end examination.

All the course material has been written in the self instructional style, with dialogue and a personal system of
writing to create a sense of interactivity. It has been attempted to involve you actively through various experience-
based activities and assignments. Each unit begins with the learning objectives and has a brief introduction which
serves as a motivation and a study guide for the unit. There is summary at the end of the unit and a glossary
of the commonly used terms in the unit. All these access devices help you to be self directed for completion of
the material and enable you to apply the new knowledge and skills learnt in this programme.

The content in each unit has been divided into smaller sections and sub sections for effective learning. As you
go through the units, you may like to jot down important points in the space provided in the margin. Broad
margins in the booklets are there for you to write your notes on. These notes will help you prepare for
the examination as also in assimilating the content. Besides, you will be able to save on time. They will also
help answer the self-check exercises and easily identify the item(s) to be clarified.

After almost each section there are self assessment questions in the form of check your progress. We hope that
we have given enough space for you to work on the self-check exercises. The purpose of giving check your
progress will be served satisfactorily if you compare your answers with the possible ones given at the end of
each unit after having written your answer in the blank space. You may be tempted to have a glance at
answer(s) given at the end of the unit as soon as you come across an exercise. But we do hope that you will
overcome the temptation and turn to these answers only after you have written yours. These exercises are not
meant to be submitted to us for correction or evaluation. The exercises are to function as study tools to help
you keep on the right track as you read the units. They also serve to stress upon the salient points in the material.
They also help in self evaluation.

The relevant references and further readings have been provided at the end of each unit for your convenience.
The reference books are listed for those who want to know further about the subject. The content presented
in the course material is sufficient for your study. Please note that all the questions either in assignments or in term-
end examination will be from the syllabi as mentioned in this guide and covered in your course material. You will
have to write the assignments related to each block.

Please read all the course material carefully, before reading the next one because; it may be difficult to follow
the later units without a proper understanding of the earlier ones. Wherever you face problem in understanding
the content, please make note of it and you can always email the questions to [email protected] or discuss the
same in the discussion forum. You can also informally clear your doubts whenever you come in contact with your
counsellors at LSC, during your counselling session.

Students may download the material from e-gyankosh or read at IGNOU e Content ( link http://egyankosh.ac.in/

21
assessment will be 70% for both the theory courses. But for the practical course, it will be 50% for each of the

academic session (6 months) or maximum period of registration( 2 years) as feasible to them. However, if you
are not able to complete in 2 years of registration, you will not get any more opportunity to complete this
programme.
