A teacher who is an effective facilitator in the balanced development of competencies related to Cognitive, Affective and Psychomotor domain. The teachers are responsible for the quality of the product coming out of schools and colleges. To shoulder this responsibility it is important that teachers remain committed to the profession, be lifelong learners and also derive satisfaction from their work so that they can become efficient and effective facilitators of learning.
