National Conference on “Value Education Through Teacher Education”

“All round education needs training to develop one‘s intelligence. It also should cleanse one’s heart. It must make better one’s conduct,” Says Dr.S.Radha Krishnan. Values alone give a person a clean heart and betterment of one’s behavior. They are desirable qualities that one should seek intensively. The Teacher Educator should be a role model to Student Teachers. The Student Teachers do not know about the values, the role of teachers in teaching them, teaching methods etc. A Student Teacher becomes a teacher and he has the responsibility of inculcating values among his tender students. He counsels the children through his words and activities. So, they must have the attitude to teach the values along with the school subjects. Teacher Educator has the responsibility in nurturing such attitudes and knowledge in the Student Teacher. A Teacher Educator should promote the values in Student Teacher through curricular activities or co-curricular activities.
