• Teacher education is vital in creating a pool of schoolteachers that will
shape the next generation. Teacher preparation is an activity that requires
multidisciplinary perspectives and knowledge, formation of dispositions
and values, and development of practice under the best mentors. Teachers
must be grounded in Indian values, languages, knowledge, ethis, and
traditions including tribal traditions, while also being well-versed in the
latest advances in education and pedagogy.

7. As teacher education requires multidisciplinary inputs, and education in
high-quality content as well as pedagogy, all teacher education programmes must
be conducted within composite multidisciplinary institutions. To this end, all
multidisciplinary universities and colleges - will aim to establish, education
departments which, besides carrying out cutting-edge research in various aspects
of education, will also run B.Ed. programmes, in collaboration with other
departments such as psychology, philosophy, sociology, neuroscience, Indian
languages, arts, music, history, literature, physical education, science and
mathematics. Moreover, all stand-alone TEIs will be required to convert to
multidisciplinary institutions by 2030, since they will have to offer the 4-year
integrated teacher preparation programme.

Accreditation Models in Teacher Education:-
The cases of United States, Australia and India Abstract Teachers have
taken on a more critical role than ever before in our knowledge-based,
technologically sophisticated, global economy, where educational dropouts
and underachievers are consigned to secondary status. Accreditation’s main
goal is to assure that all students have competent, caring and qualified
teachers. This article follows the comparative method in order to get a deep
understanding of teacher education accreditation process in different cultures
(USA, Australia & India). This comparison is historically embedded
conscious of national differences, legal structures, private-public involvement
and the type of accreditation being offered. A classification of initial teacher
education and certification, aims & objectives, mission, governance, and
other areas will be made.

22. • In India, the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC)
came into existence with the mission to improve the quality and
standard of education at different levels, as it was rightly observed by
the Education Commission (1964-66) that the quality of pre-service
teacher education has not only improved but has actually shown signs
of deterioration (NCTE, 1996) (Dey, N., 2011). Thus; The Central
Government appointed the National Council for Teacher Education
(NCTE) as the academic authority to lay down the teacher
qualifications. The NCTE, vide its Notification dated 23rd August,
2010 laid down the teacher qualifications. These were modified on
29th July, 2011. One of the essential conditions specified in the
Notiication is that a person has to qualify a Teacher Eligibility Test
(TET) conducted by the appropriate Government, in accordance with
Guidelines prepared by the NCTE. The Guidelines on TET were
circulated on 11th February, 2011, and thereafter the Central
Government and several State Governments have conducted the TET
(Department of School Education & Literacy, 2012:11)
