Abstract

Education is a vital component in every child’s life and it is true to say that
an educated man can bring revolutions in the society. But have we ever thought that
this education reaches to how many students and with what components of teaching
learning material? It takes many years to revolutionize things and these positive
changes are brought about by educated and enlightened minds. Teaching is no longer
theoretical and stereotypical; it has undergone many modifications and is considered
a skilful profession. Only a skilful teacher can very well understand purposeful
learning of students and accordingly devise strategies and methods of teaching. In this
paper, we are trying to unveil the dire need of skilful teaching and learning in schools
especially at secondary stage .As teacher educators, our initiatives are important as
social reformers to promote the learning strategies. Imparting education is important
but today’s scenario needs skilful teaching and training of students for them to
become efficient as well as skilled personnel in the future world, especially the
adolescents.
