The training focusses on content upgradation of teachers with respect to their own special subject areas. It also involves in-depth training on new knowledge and its relevance to their work. Teachers would relearn new and innovative classroom management techniques and strategies for improving quality of teaching.
Teachers in the emerging context are required to acquire new knowledge and skills and develop them continuously. They are also expected to unlearn their existing practices and re-learn the practices which may help them to become the facilitators of learning. Professional development of teachers on a continuous basis, is therefore the only way to provide necessary orientation and expose teachers to the range of skills and activities which impact upon quality classroom transactions.
The methodologies for the training programme includes face to face interaction, self learning, audio-video support, self-learning printed course material packages, assignment for assessment and feedback, practicals at designated institutions etc.
Furthermore, the teachers undergo an evaluation. Certificates upon completion of programme are provided by IGNOU.
