In order to determine eligibility for lectureship and to award Junior Research Fellowship ( JRF) and to ensure minimum stan-
dards for the entrants in the teaching profession and research, National Eligibility Test (NET) is conducted in Humanities
(including languages), Social Sciences, Forensic Science, Environmental Sciences, Computer Science and Electronic Science.
This time Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) on behalf of UGC is holding the National Eligibility Test (NET).
This is conducted twice in a year in the months of June and December. Junior Research Fellowship ( JRF) is for candidates
who desire to pursue research. The JRFs are awarded to the meritorious candidates from among the candidates’ qualifying
for eligibility for lectureship in the NET. JRFs are restricted to only those candidates who opt for it in their application.
This notes presents teaching and research-based related topic with multiple choice ques-
tions . These strategies are based on the theory of multiple topic and brain-storming MCQ
for each chapter, which can be usefull in examination like UGC/CBSE NET, SET, B.ED and
other competitive examinations. No matter what the subject or grade level. Finally, its my

1.1 Introduction
N
A
Aptitude of any student is the internal ability or talent of the student which makes the difference with other student. One
H
simply cannot cultivate aptitude rather aptitude of the student is totally depends on the practices. To be a strong in the
aptitude , student must have enormous interest in the area in which they are interested. Teaching aptitude is totally depends
on individual’s interest towards teaching. To be a good teacher, one must have combination of behavioural characteristics as
-C
well as cultural characteristic. The person with real teaching aptitude must be curious, open-minded and obviously he/she
must have in-depth knowledge of the subject, including love and faith for student.
N
1.2 What is teaching?

A
Teachers are the backbone of every society and they plays a vital role in nurturing the mind of the young child. The best
teacher always gives knowledge and skills in very effective ways to young students. Teaching basically means interaction of
AY
teacher and students in an interactive way where both of them participate for their mutual benefits. Both the students and
teacher can have their own objective and target. Throughout the world there are many great teachers defines teaching in
different ways.
One word definition of teaching
R
The one word definition of teaching is just to train the students such that they can stands on their own foot in our
A
modern society.
In teaching, three main aspects are as follows.

N
• Teacher • students • education
A true teacher is one with the following qualities
1. Teacher must identify the weak student in the class
2. Teacher live with the students mentally
3. Teacher must love the students
4. Teacher must identify knowledge of student and build the student on what they have
5. Teacher must give his own shoulder to his student for nurturing such that students can grow mentally and physically
1
Chapter 1. Teaching aptitude
6. Teacher must be friendly with his student up to a certain limit inside the classroom.
7. Teacher must be humorous inside classroom and as well as he/she must have capabilities to control the classroom.
8. A good teacher must have in-depth knowledge of the subject.
1.3 Role of a teacher

Teachers are the backbone of any society. There are several roles a teacher plays to make our society stronger. The way a
teacher can lead students is varied from teacher to teacher. Teachers can plays the role in variety of ways either formally or
informally. The following 10 roles are used by many of the teachers frequently to improve the students mentally, physically
and socially. It is not only the case the teacher can be a human beings, a teacher can be any one for example nature can
be a teacher for you if you learn something from the nature. Your mother is the best teacher for you because you learnt
ER
everything in childhood from your mother.
Role of a great teacher
Following are the role of a teacher.
D
1. Resource provider 6. Mentor
G
2. Instructional specialist 7. School leader
3. Curriculum specialist 8. Data coach
N
4. Classroom supporter 9. Catalyst for change
5. Learning facilitator
A 10. Learner for lifelong
H
1. Resource provider : a teacher must help their students and colleagues by sharing instructional resources. The
instructional resources might include websites, any instructional documents, any new idea’s, or other resources to
use with the students.
-C
2. Instructional specialist : an instructional specialist always helps colleagues to implement effective teaching strategies
in the institution. For example if your students submits new laboratory reports written in very poor English-language,
you invite some English teachers to recommend the strategies for writing the instruction in laboratory reports.
N
3. Curriculum specialist : Curriculum specialist must understand the standard of content in the syllabus, how various
subjects of the curricula links together and how to use the curriculam such that students can understand better?.
A
4. Classroom supporter : Classroom supporters work inside classrooms to help teachers implement new ideas, often
AY
by demonstrating a lesson, co-teaching, or observing and giving feedback.

5. Learning facilitator Facilitating professional learning opportunities among staff members is another role for teacher
leaders. When teachers learn with and from one another, they can focus on what most directly improves student
learning. Their professional learning becomes more relevant, focused on teachers’ classroom work, and aligned to fill
R
gaps in student learning. Such communities of learning can break the norms of isolation present in many schools.
6. Mentor: Serving as a mentor for novice teachers is a common role for teacher leaders. Mentors serve as role models;
A
acclimate new teachers to a new school; and advise new teachers about instruction, curriculum, procedure, practices,
and politics. Being a mentor takes a great deal of time and expertise and makes a significant contribution to the
N
development of a new professional.

7. School leader: Being a school leader means serving on a committee, such as a school improvement team; acting as a
grade-level or department chair; supporting school initiatives; or representing the school on community or district
task forces or committees. A school leader shares the vision of the school, aligns his or her professional goals with
those of the school and district, and shares responsibility for the success of the school as a whole.
8. Data coach: Although teachers have access to a great deal of data, they do not often use that data to drive classroom
instruction. Teacher leaders can lead conversations that engage their peers in analyzing and using this information to
strengthen instruction.
9. Catalyst for change: Teacher leaders can also be catalysts for change. Teachers who take on the catalyst role feel
secure in their own work and have a strong commitment to continual improvement. They pose questions to generate
analysis of student learning.
2
1.4. Teachers and their tasks
10. Learner for lifelong: Among the most important roles teacher leaders assume is that of learner. Learners model
continual improvement, demonstrate lifelong learning, and use what they learn to help all students achieve.
Roles for all Teacher’s exhibit leadership in multiple, sometimes overlapping, ways. Some leadership roles are formal
with designated responsibilities. Other more informal roles emerge as teachers interact with their students. The variety
of roles ensures that teachers can find ways to lead that fit their talents and interests. Regardless of the roles they assume,
teacher leaders shape the culture of their schools, improve student learning, and influence practice among their peers.
1.4 Teachers and their tasks

Teaching is a great profession throughout the world. The person who chooses teaching as a profession must believe that all
the necessary qualities he must possesses to become an effective teachers. Moreover it is also mandatory that they must
ER
enjoy working with young kids and at the same time convinced that there effort will lead to betterment of society by
nurturing the young kids. It is not a matter of fact that wherever the teacher is teaching, the teacher may teach in kinder
garden or in universities. Teacher is typically confronted with the following task
1. Preparing students for learning new topic
D
2. Presenting learning activities
3. Asking questions to student
G
4. Monitoring the students learning
N
5. Giving the students feedback
6. Reviewing the students A
7. Identifying the weak student
H
8. Re-teaching already taught topic
9. Taking the tutorial classes
-C
10. Preparing the students notes

11. Preparing question banks
N
Task of a teaacher

AY
2. To bring desired change in learners mind

3. To give the students sufficient knowledge about the subject
R
4. To enhance the skill of the student

1.5 Characteristics of a Great/Good Teacher

It is an accepted fact that teachers are usually not born but made. Good teachers nurture their knowledge and skills through
constant and deliberate efforts. One of the prerequisite to be good teacher is to understand the teaching learning process in
more depth.
Greatness in teaching is just as rare as greatness in medicine, dance, law, or any other profession.Teaching is all about
hard work and in this profession some teachers become a great teacher and they became the idol of their students and
other teachers never grow to be anything better than mediocre. The great teachers, however, work endlessly to create a
3
challenging, nurturing environment for their dear students. A great teaching seems to have less to do with the knowledge
and skills than with our attitude towards our students, subjects, our work. Although this list is certainly not all-inclusive, i
have narrowed down the many characteristics of a great teacher to those i have found to be the most essential, regardless of
the age of the learner.
1. A great teacher respects students: a great teacher inside classroom must be friendly such that every student ideas
and opinions are valued equally. Students must feel safe to express their thoughts and feelings and learn to respect and
listen to others students. In a single word a great teacher classroom must be a welcoming learning environment for
all the students.
2. A great teacher creates a sense of community and belonging in the classroom : A great teacher creates a small
important community inside the class room. There must be a mutual respect in the classroom which provides a
supportive and collaborative environment. In this small environment there are rules to follow and each student must
ER
be aware that they are important integral part of the group. A great teacher lets students know that they can depend
not only on teacher, but also on the entire class.
3. A great teacher sets high expectations for all students : Student expectation must be hardly been a great teacher’s
classroom. Teachers must know that students generally ask questions or any doubt present in their mind.
D
4. A great teacher has his own love of learning : A great teacher always inspires his student with his passion for
G
education and for the course material. Teacher constantly renews themselves as a professional to provide student
with the high quality of education possible. Great teacher should not have any kind of fear of learning new teaching
strategies for incorporating new technologies inside classroom.
N
5. A great teacher is a skilled leader : Different from administrative leaders, effective teachers focus on shared decision-
making and teamwork, as well as on community building. This great teacher conveys the sense of leadership to
A
students by providing opportunities for each of them to assume leadership roles
6. A great teacher can “shift-gears”: A great teacher can “shift-gears” and is flexible when a lesson isn’t working. This
H
teacher assesses his teaching throughout the lessons and finds new ways to present material to make sure that every
student understands the key concepts
-C
7. A great teacher collaborates with colleagues on an ongoing basis: Rather than thinking of himself/herself as
weak because he/ she asks for suggestions or help, this teacher views collaboration as a way to learn from a fellow
professional. A great teacher uses constructive criticism and advice as an opportunity to grow as an educator.
N
8. A great teacher maintains professionalism in all areas: From personal appearance to organizational skills and pre-
paredness for each day. His/ Her communication skills are exemplary, whether she is speaking with an administrator,
A
one of her students or a colleague. The respect great teacher receives because of his/ her professional manner is
obvious to those around him/her.

1.6.1 Pedagogy paradigms

R
Pedagogy is the science and art of education. The aim of pedagogy is to develop the human beings up to the skill acquisition.
The teaching is a professional artistry which requires a teacher to efficiently plan the objective and give the students
A
meaningful knowledge in teaching-learning process. In the process of teaching, every teacher evolved themselves every
day and they also develop their unique teaching style based on multiple encounters with their students. In teaching, every
N
day teacher faced challenges and they loop for solution to those challenges. Pedagogical environment of teaching helps
the teacher to understand the teaching-learning process and different teaching strategies. The job of teaching is a complex
process which is executed in a sophisticated phases. More or less there are four phases.
1. planning
2. execution
3. assessment
4. reflection
The entire process starting from planning to reflection is totally depends on the teachers choice and beliefs in the learning
paradigm on how students learn. A teacher is able to change their learning plan if they use some teaching model to organize
and implement teaching strategies. There are various methods of teaching as suggested by stewards in education system.

1.6.2 Recent trends in pedagogy Paradigm’s
D
To be a successful teacher, a teacher must have to follow a model of teaching. A model of teaching is basically a plan or
scheme prepared by teacher to organize instructional material which helps to implement teaching method and to achieve
G
the goal of the curriculum. According to G.E. Miller “teaching method which plays learners in active learning situation are
more likely to be effective than those which do not”. There are various teaching methods available in the literature. The
below table shows the central idea of the teaching method as described by various theorists.
N
In recent development of higher education, it is strongly believe that the process of learning is different from school
to universities because students develop the intellectual power for learning. In the higher education, students become
A
more autonomous and resourcefull, as a result in the higher education, students becomes experience learner. In the
higher education, students becomes an independent learner by developing their positive learning habit and ultimately they
becomes masters in their own learning process. Education is basically the process of developing some capabilities into
H
an individuals. Though it is a fact that abilities are always inborn quality, but it is also a fact that these abilities can be
nurtured and developed in an learner through various means by an educator. Education must also be relieved and useful
from source site’s point of view in which the learner is living. The productivity of education can be classified as qualitative
-C
and quantitative.

1.7 Traditional teaching method
-C
In the ancient teaching method, the teacher was the sender or the source, the educational material was the information
or message and students or learner was the receiver of that information. The educator deliver the message by using the
N
chalk- and- talk method or by using overhead projector. Basically, the teacher controls the total instructional process, the
content is delivered to the entire classroom at the teacher tends to emphasise factual knowledge. In this process, the teacher
delivers the lecture content and the learner listened to the lecture. The main drawback in this method is the method is
A
totally passive and the learners play a little role in the teaching-learning process. Some limitation which may prevail in
traditional teaching methods are as follows.

experience and he is the master of the subject, explain all the points and can answer all the question raised by student. In
this method student can ask questions anytime if they need any clarification. Efficiency of Lecture method totally depends
on quantity of information, style of presenting information, clarity of information, active listening skills on the part of
learners and supplementary material to provide a roadmap for the Lecture.
