RE- INVENTING TEACHER EDUCATION IN CONTEXT OF GLOBALIZATION

Globalisation is a process through which an increasingly free flow of ideas, people, goods, services and capital would lead to the integration of economies and Societies. It is a complex and multi-faceted phenomena which has put an ineradicable impression on all the spheres and levels of life, resulting in growing independence of people across the globe. The Education system is reacting differently to the changes in the world’s new economic, political and cultural orders which are changing because of globalisation. It is only through improving the educational status of a society that the multi-faceted development of its people can be ensured. That is why it has become essential for each and every person whether he is a policy maker, reform designer, or educational leader, to understand the impact of globalisation on the process of teaching and learning. Our paper will focus on teacher education in context of globalisation that should respond to the profound global changes taking place in the world today. Teachers training courses should be planned, implemented and assessed thoroughly for the teacher trainees in context of globalisation. Only then our teachers will be globalised in real terms and it is only then we can say that the future generation of our country is in right hands
