Teaching Practice (Second Phase)
“Teachers, I believe, are the most responsible and important members of society because their
professional efforts affect the fate of the earth."
--Helen Caldicott
“Teaching is the profession on which all other professions depend. Indeed, everybody who is
anybody was enabled to become somebody by a teacher.”
– Prof. Linda Darling – Hammond.
‘The destiny of the country is being shaped in her classrooms’ is not rhetoric. This focuses on the
crucial role, the teaching community is expected to play in making education qualitative. It is now
well-recognized that the most important single factor for the quality of education and thus for the
efficiency and quality of the pupils’ learning is the quality of the teachers’ training.Hence
considerable thought and attention have been given to teacher education by all societies throughout
the world.Decades ago, developing subject matter competency and pruning teaching skills in a
specific subject was the prime objective of teacher training programs. But with the advent of
globalization and the increasing convergence of digital technologies, educational practices have
undergone tremendous changes throughout the world to meet the challenges brought about by this
new landscape.
As part of the new B.Ed. curriculum the second phase of teaching practice was started from 14 November 2016 on wards. I got Govt.Model Girls H.S,Kollam for my teaching practice.I got opportunity to teach 8 standard students of the school,whom I taught during the third semester teaching practice.The whole school,it's systems and also students were familiar for me..that made me happy..In 8 standard ,Kala teacher asked me to took the lessons 'The Nightingale and the Rose' and 'The Day in the Country.' For the x-mas examination I need to teach them the lessons.Both the stories depicts the relationship between man and nature..
