Overview

Teaching and Teacher Education in India: Perspectives and Trends is a comprehensive exploration of the past, present, and future of pedagogy in the world's largest democracy. The book seeks to bridge the gap between high-level policy visions-such as those articulated in the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020-and the complex, often challenging realities of the Indian classroom. The narrative begins by tracing the evolution of teacher education from the ancient Gurukul system to the standardized regulatory frameworks of the modern era. It then examines the contemporary trends reshaping the field, including the shift toward constructivist learning, the mandate for inclusive education, and the democratization of content through digital infrastructure such as DIKSHA. This volume does not shy away from the tension between vision and reality. It offers a critical examination of the challenges facing the sector, from the proliferation of substandard commercial institutions to the persistent digital divide that continues to separate urban centers from rural regions.
