Abstract: Swami Vivekananda-one of the renowned saints of India, in his list of God’s gifts, includes teaching, as it illuminates human minds and removes darkness from the world. The first Prime Minister of India Mr Jawaharlal Nehru says that no nation can think of prosperity of any kind in any field, unless people of the nation are educated. All those who are of real concern for civilized and cultured survival of humanity and the welfare of the nation have much insisted on quality education being imparted. It is education that determines the fate of any country.
One of the greatest challenges for every teacher is to capture the attention of students during the teaching-learning process. However, for a teacher who is totally committed to teaching knows that even though capturing students’ attention is quite challenging, it is not something improbable. Any class instruction in the absence of appropriate method and approach is of no value from the perspectives of students. Innovations add value to experience. Application of approaches and methods cannot be logically and ethically termed as innovations, but innovations are born out of one’s own experiential observations. Innovations can be well tried by means of making meaningful, practical and beneficial modification in the pedagogical strategies, ultimately aiming at making teaching-learning process as effective as possible.
Keywords: Quality education, challenges, pedagogical strategies, teaching learning process.
