The Reflective Teacher Organization of In-service Training of the Teachers of Elementary Schools under SSA

Abstract

NCERT is happy to present a new training design for in-service teachers at the elementary level. The training strategies outlined here focus on children’s own ability to learn from their activities and experiences in day-to-day life. This perspective on learning marks our attempt to impart a child-centred character to the system of elementary education. The National Curriculum Framework, 2005 places the crucial responsibility of implementing this perspective on the teacher and recommends a renewal of our existing structure for in-service teacher training programmes.
