Overview

The Programme TRANSACTIONAL SKILLS One of the noticeable features of higher education is the lack o f variety in teaching-learning methods. This could be due to unthinking tradition (this is the way it has always been done) or administrative convenience (it is easy to organize). Trainees have different attitudes to learning and also individual ways of learning. There is, therefore, a need for a corresponding variety of teaching strategies. Further, using a variety of strategies helps the trainer to avoid boredom, as variety always generates interest. Certain training methods are a suitable mode to transact certain content areas. But there is no hard and fast rule about only one method being suitable for a particular content area. It is only a question of one method being more suitable than others. A trainer should ideally have a repertoire of training methods to make her/his training effective and enjoyable.
