Papers by Alex M George
images in school textbooks, its uses potentials and challenges as expe-
rienced by the author. It reflects upon the experiences of the process
of selection of these images within the context of political science as
a discipline. These experiences have been formed over a decade while
working for Eklavya in Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan, and also at
the NCERT in New Delhi. It locates changes in understanding the
perspectives on political cartoons and posters as could be used in a
school textbook. It also argues that there is a need to rethink ways in
which cartoons are used in textbooks. Furthermore, it tells us some-
thing about the way political science as a discipline is taught in schools
across India
The central concern of the article is an analysis of the definitions and images of an ideal teacher that one gains while being trained in B. Ed. programs in India. The study explores this theme with the help of numerous student teacher interactions, interactions with faculty members as well as the textbooks and other study material through which the author traverses. These interactions between Student Teachers and Teacher Educators look into their experiences in the classroom, hostel life, teaching practice and assignments. These aspects have been contextualised and woven along with the broader experiences and exposure that the author gained while working in the field of education prior to the program and the disjuncture that has come to permeate the ideals in teacher education program. The paper uses these narratives to critique the teacher education program as well as to highlight its stagnation. The data for this study emerged through detailed documentation while the author was a student as well as through further discussions after the completion of the program. The paper also looks at a series of studies that emerge from teacher biographies, teacher educator’s research, analysis and studies on teacher education programs, along with a few discussions on the definitions of an ideal teacher.
