A Study of Change Proneness and Role Efficiency of Primary School Teachers

Abstract

Education is the most important invention of mankind. It begins at birth and end at his death. It is a process of growth in which the individual is helped to develop his talents, powers, interests and ambitions. Nobody can deny the fact that the role of the teacher is crucial in any teaching learning situation at any level of education. It is the teacher who controls and guides the learning of his students by objectives of the subjects to be taught, planning timings and environment of teaching, deciding methodology, adopting teaching techniques and finally evaluating the outcomes of teaching. She may not decide the goals of education but he/she is the one who is responsible for the accomplishment of these goals. The effectiveness of his/her teaching is judged by the extent to which these goals are relaised.
