Vision Statement
“Learning and Innovation go hand in hand. The
arrogance of success is to think that what you did
yesterday will be sufficient for tomorrow.”
William Pollard
As teachers we all know that learning about
educational practice in general and teaching in specific
is an ongoing activity. The field of educational practice
is ever emerging and hence there is always something
new to learn. Most of us start learning about our
profession through a formal teacher preparation
program. Since, any such preparation is incomplete
without practicing the profession, the learning
continues even after starting the practice of teaching.
Additionally, it is not practical to expect to learn
everything through formal learning in an ever
emerging field like teaching. Starting from the initial
teacher preparation program to ongoing teacher
learning activities, teacher professional development
can be seen as a continuum. Therefore, we are
interested in the role of innovations in teaching
learning process. Innovations are becoming
increasingly prominent in the process of teacher
professional development. Blending technology and
other alternative pedagogies in teacher education
indicates and refers to different learning models that
combine traditional classroom practice with innovative
learning solutions. With this, both traditional and
innovative strategy may be very helpful in classroom
to clarify any subject matter within limited
infrastructures. A well – written alternative plan will
answer clearly to who, what, when, where and how –
questions related to achieving the vision and goals.
Also before using any innovation the efficiency of the
