ABSTRACT

In-service teacher education and training are the keys to changing the perception of teaching, which used to be student-oriented inside the classroom. In earlier days, it was more about instilling a value system in the children. Therefore, as they grow older, they become independent and can be able to nourish their own life by their own effort. However, because globalization has resulted in cultural mixing, we have begun to accept more foreign cultures and their teaching methodologies. With this intention in service, teacher training has been included as part of the teachers’ development program, whereby teachers are supposed to attend short-term courses and other faculty development programs in order to increase their existing knowledge. For this purpose, there are sufficient provisions with regard to the tying up of schools with specific organizations, both public and private, to train teachers. With this background, the researcher attempted to examine the effectiveness of in-service training programs from the teachers' point of view based on eighty-eight secondary school teachers of the Balasore municipality area of the Balasore district of Odisha.
