Teacher Training.

Require changes??

After attending many teacher training programs and conducting few, i like share to my views.

There is no need to emphasise that every class room is different and go into the details.

Many of the training programs focus only on ‘how’ to do and ‘what’ to do, missing factor of ‘why’. 
Teaching is unique profession.  In my opinion, they must know both ‘science and engineering’ relatively more than techniques, tricks and tips. 

For example, if training is focused on how to ride a motorcycle, and ride only on one wheel and how to make 180 turn on single wheel, YES, excitement and satisfaction.

In my opinion, taking the professional needs of teachers and necessities, teachers must have a greater understanding on 'how a moving motorcycle is able to disobey gravitational pull  scientifically. 

Just like practicing and perfecting great 'yoga' postures, without knowing any thing other than that, wont allow teachers to design a new method. 

Teacher training programs should be designed with practices along with clear theories. This may enable teachers to design their own methods as per the requirement of students they are attending in the class rooms.

please take a sincere  note from me, i am NOT against yoga as i know the benefits of it, here i am bring this example only to encourage teachers for their won creations depending on their class room conditions and to get desired outcomes.

Teachers training programs, in my belief, should be designed and associated to encourage teachers to come out of their own methods, instead of looking for available resources on what they are trained.

Today humans are looking at the surroundings of Mars on their lap tops, not because of new sciences and engineering principles, but as they know today how to use these two to achieve.

What do you say?
