Re: [MTC Global] Teaching as a profession

Teaching school children is totally different from teaching teenagers & adults , in age group 14 to 21.
An excellent grip of teaching padagogies, methodologies, ground breaking research, tons of theoritical knowledge is not adequate --
to make a good faculty.
Art of teaching is is a long journey, a yearning, continued learning & a quest for excellence.
It cannot be taught or learnt in a limited time frame like lathe machine operations or PCB soldering or PERT/ CPM or Java.
To become a professional teacher, understand the profession of management from various dimensions - historical, conceptual, intellectual, societal, sectoral, industry perspective, pitfalls, contemporary management practices, what works, what does not,
where to use the knowledge, & the likes.
A regular engagement with industry managers, entrepreneurs, senior consultants, award winners, inviting the right persons for giving talks, attending FDP"s, seminars, guest lectures  & training programs & be on that job .
Yes, its a long way & the road itself will design the map
Scaling up the ladder is a burning desire which comes from within. It needs a 360 degree blossoming. That is required for the faculty.

Teaching qualifications like DEd,BEd etc are meant for School Education.

 

At higher Education when teachers / professors learn education, teaching pedagogies, art of Teaching and managing students etc

 

In absence of this what is their road map to become professional teacher. Isolated examples of good teachers with educational qualifications can not make all teachers of higher education professional.

Sir/Ma'm s

Some time ago I saw some postings in this forum about Teaching as a profession. Also I have see one more posting on Ph. D. 

I would like put forward one question .

Why should Teaching be Considered as a Profession by itself, 

of course it is the prevailing situation today in India, 

because as it is prevailing condition, 

Candidates with out Practical Experience would become Teachers, 

because of which the transition would be on only THEORETICAL IMAGINARY knowledge but not the Practical Experience?

This is with all due respect to every one of you, because I strongly believe that each and every Teacher should not consider Teaching as a Full time job and must stay away from teaching job and Look for alternative Full Time Jobs those are in the world.

I strongly believe that this would change India from the Second day of this change, which I believe I could see you notice that.
