Trained teachers have always been the first and firm choice of all societies. They all have shown their preferences for the type of teachers they wanted to have. Teachers can seldom be trained alike, as the content and methods of teacher training differ from country to country. It is teachers and good quality teachers at that who make all the difference in classroom instruction.
The book offers the picture of India\'s contemporary teacher education scenario. Having identified areas of research, teacher educators took up the challenge in the right earnest and came out with the ground reality behind current teacher education practices. The book would prove to be useful for research scholars, students and policy makers alike. (Jacket)
