There has been considerable confusion in the minds of young lecturers as to what they are expected to perform and with what responsibility. If on one hand, some think that teaching a few hours is the sole responsibility of a P U College lecturer, there are others who are a little more liberal in their outlook to think that they are also to evaluate the performance of their students. This module would clarify to you the roles and responsibilities of a lecturer.

Why this project?
This is a collaborative effort of the 'Regional Institute of Education, Mysore' and the 'Department of Pre-University Education, Bangalore' to provide in-service professional development inputs for the lecturers of the Junior Colleges in Karnataka. This need was primarily felt by the department since the existing recruitment rules do not make a professional degree in teaching mandatory for becoming a lecturer. It is also true that the existing Bachelor of Education programme does not cater to the requirements of a P U lecturer since it is primarily aimed at preparation of secondary school teachers It is felt that the lecturers at the +2 level have diverse needs for in-service professional development. Broadly they may be classified as 'Content Enrichment' and 'Training in Methodology of Teaching'. This programme is visualised as a generic training in methodology of teaching at P U level. !What is an Induction Programme?  ! In the news
