All this and many more achievements would not have been possible without the role and contribution of teachers at all levels in higher education in this country. Stating that teacher-educators cannot do justice to their jobs if they do not know the organization, management and sociology of schools. They should know the needs, motivations and commitments of the society to strengthen higher education ultimately well being of the nation.

The teacher is now expected not only to inculcate knowledge but also encourage divergent and reasonble thinking. In the changed scenario, teachers should be able to guide students to the sources of information and knowledge available.
