Message
|
It is firmly believed that
the quality of teachers in educational institutions determines the
eventual quality of education. The role of colleges of education in
preparing high quality teachers is, therefore, imperative. The
teachers for the 21st century should have the ability to ensure
cognitive, conative and affective development of the students and
create in them a value system which is a mixture of time- tested
values, nationalistic and secular traditions and scientific temper.
It is an arduous task and cannot be completed without high quality
teacher educators. The professional development of teacher educators
is, therefore, the need of the hour.
It is gratifying to note
that the MIER College of Education has undertaken to develop
multifarious skills among the trainee teachers as well as the
teacher educators. The college has taken notable strides in the
direction of empowering stakeholders in the use of ICTs and
sharpening their communicative skills. With inclusive education in
mind, the preparation of teachers for treating children with special
needs has become a well regulated programme in the college. Side by
side, emphasis on action research, innovations and enhancing
teaching effectiveness are going hand in hand. I have not the
slightest doubt that the college will continue to play its leading
role in the above areas The launch of the college website would go a
long way in highlighting its multifarious activities and
achievements.
