Emerging Trends in Teacher’s Education
Keywords:
education, organize, teachingAbstract
A quality teacher’s education program is rational and streamlined to address some specific pedagogical issues. Basically, it elucidates the idea about what good teaching is all about and then how it organizes course work and all practical experiences around it. Teacher’s education courses are very much connected to practice as well as to theory. A good teacher’s training programs have teachers working continuously with expert master teachers in a traditional classroom or virtual setting to enhance the knowledge and experience base. However expert teachers are also imparting knowledge about how students learn, how to assess their learning and about effective teaching strategies to provide them a platform to build repertoire. A historical method of qualitative research design was used to propose a new framework on emerging trends in teacher’s education.
Keywords: Digital literacy; education reform; teacher education; teaching strategies; trends.
