Impact of In-service Teacher Training on Classroom Transaction. Inset Tool Kit

Abstract

Quality school education requires teachers of quality. The world that teachers are preparing children to enter is changing rapidly, and the teaching skills required need to evolve likewise. No pre-service course of teacher education can be sufficient to prepare a teacher for her whole career of 30 or 40 years. Thus, in-service teacher education is an essential process by which teachers (like other professionals) keep themselves up to date. Realizing this need, the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan guidelines provide for in-service training (INSET). The study entitled, ‘Study of Impact of In-service Teacher Training under SSA on Classroom Transaction’, though covering only the twenty-day training programme, is much needed.
