We study the effects
of various types of education and training on the productivity of teachers in
promoting student achievement. Previous studies on the subject have been
hampered by inadequate measures of teacher training and difficulties in
addressing the non-random selection of teachers to students and of teachers to
training.
We address these
issues by estimating models that include detailed measures of training, a rich
set of time-varying covariates, and student, teacher, and school fixed effects.
We find that elementary and middle school
teacher productivity increases with experience (informal on-the-job training).
The largest gains from experience occur in the first few years, but we find
continuing gains beyond the first five years of a teacher's career.
In Order to make
increment in knowledge and skills of middle school as well as nursery and
primary teacher there is a huge requirement of teacher training. Teacher
training is very beneficent in order to maintain the teaching quality of a
teacher. Such teacher training courses fosters and emphasizes the teaching
skills of the students so as to transform them from novice to a trained
teacher.
There are several
courses provided by teacher training institutions such as NTT (Nursery Teacher
Training), Montessori Teacher Training, NPTT(Nursery Primary Teacher Training),
PTT (Primary Teacher Training), B.ed (Bachelor Of Education) etc. The courses
provided by such institutions are on the basis of eligibility criteria.
Different courses required different eligibility as well.
