ADVERTISEMENT FOR FILLING VACANCY POSITIONS IN INTER UNIVERSITY CENTRE FOR TEACHER EDUCATION (IUCTE), RIE, NCERT, MYSURU

The Department of Higher Education, Ministry of Human Resource Development, Govt. of India, New Delhi has recently set up an Inter University Centre for Teacher Education (IUCTE) at the Regional Institute of Education, Mysore, which is one of the constituent units of the NCERT, New Delhi which in turn is an autonomous body under the Ministry of HRD, Govt. of India, New Delhi. The IUCTE aims to strengthen the knowledge base of Teacher Education by facilitating professional development, networking, new knowledge creation and empowerment of teachers of Academic Institutions and Central & State Universities in Southern Region.

Proposed Strategies, Approaches and Action plan of IUCTE:

1. Education as one of the electives will be introduced at undergraduate and post graduate levels in order to give a wider scope and flexibility in the professional choice of the students.

2. Besides the existing two, four, six-year teacher education programmes offered by RIEM, innovative Teacher Education programmes which are interdisciplinary and integrated in nature will be planned. Multiculturalism will be the underlying thread in all innovative teacher education programmes.

3. Extension of teacher education programmes to other professional disciplines such as engineering, medicine, commerce, agriculture, industry and technology in order to develop pedagogical and andragogic competencies in those fields.

4. To develop networking and co-ordination between the teacher education institutions and university departments of education through collaborative research projects and consultative services.

5. Handholding of state universities in designing and structuring their teacher education programmes.

6. The in-service training programmes will focus not only on enrichment of content and pedagogic competencies, but also empower the teachers with the skills and competencies of designing curriculum, text book writing and in conducting action research projects.

The other measures that have been envisaged to achieve the objectives of IUCTE are as follows:

Need assessment through surveys and interviews

Short-term orientation and refresher courses, training programmes of 21 to 45 days duration with field experience and on the job training following teleconferencing, online transaction, Face-to-Face Interaction modes.

Seminars, symposiums, workshops, Regional/National/International conferences.

Entering into MoUs with other important National/International organizations and conduct of Post-Doctoral Research Programmes.

Expected Outcomes of IUCTE

1. The proposed IUCTE will strengthen the quality and the standards of teacher education.

2. Promote interdisciplinary/multidisciplinary teacher education programmes catering to the diverse needs of teaching community.

3. It will strengthen the professional requirements of teachers through multiple programmes of teacher education.

4. Empowerment of the in-service teachers in curriculum designing, text book writing, subject and pedagogical competencies, research competencies, ICT competencies and school leadership.

5. It will cater to the management and administrative requirements of school leaders.

6. Focus on the thrust areas like education of children with special needs, inclusive education, ICT based pedagogy, education for sustainable development, education of socially disadvantaged groups, skill development courses, value and peace education, education for gender equality and equity, life skills education, school leadership, policy planning and implementation and so on.

7. The research areas that have not been explored so far in the field of teacher education will be focused. The research insights will provide ground realities in the teacher education field that will lead to newer decisions, shift in the curriculum frameworks and teacher education practices.

8. Policies on teacher education will be arrived based on research based evidences and field experiences.

Proposed Academic Activities

The thrust areas to be focused under IUCTE are Teacher education at different levels of schooling, curriculum designing, research methodology, professionalised pedagogy at different stages of schooling, andragogy, educational evaluation and assessment, remedial instruction, education of children with special needs and inclusive education, education of the socially disadvantaged and students from other marginalized sectors, vocational education, educational technology, ICT enabled instruction, science education, mathematics education, language education, social sciences education, guidance and counseling, school mental health services, In-service and extension service programs for teachers and teacher educators, educational administration and leadership, program planning and evaluation, higher education and so on.

The modus operandi for meeting the needs of the teacher educators of the Central / State Universities and State Councils of Educational Research and Training is different from training the teachers at school level. There is adequate scope for contributory and collaborative learning approaches. The programs should be need based, innovative and productive. Every Central and State University and State Council of Educational Research and Training has its own priority. They may focus on the issues of teacher education pertaining to their respective states, zones, in addition to common issues. Instead of working as a stand-alone organization, the Regional Institute can be much more productive in collaborating with all these institutions with equal partnership. We have to evolve solutions for the wide variety and complex problems of the educational system by learning from the experiences of every institution of the region that can be undertaken effectively by IUCTE.
