Objective of the ETT course

In all the E.T.T. colleges run by the Group, stress is laid on child centered and activity based learning process. Various Commissions and Committees on education have emphasized that a systematic education programme is essential for qualitative improvement of teacher trainees. This has become all the more necessary with the generation of new knowledge, instructional designs and communication technology. Against this backdrop, the teaching faculty of our Elementary Teachers’ Training colleges work hard to help the teacher trainees to develop following qualities so that they bloom into successful teachers: -

• Competence to teach various subjects on the basis of accepted principles of learning and teaching.
• Skills, understanding, interest and attitudes, which would enable them to foster all round growth and development of their pupils.
• Skills in identifying, selecting, innovating and organizing learning experiences for teaching various school subjects.
• Understanding of psychological principles of growth and development, individual differences and cognitive and attitudinal learning.
• Skills in guiding students in order to enable them to solve their personal as well as academic problems.
• Understanding the role of home, school and community in shaping the personality of the child and to develop an amicable home school relationship for mutual benefit.
