Abstract Teaching is the noblest profession of all the professions and teachers are regarded as backbone of any educational institution. They play a significant role in moulding and shaping of the all-round development of students. It is a well-known fact that quality of a nation depends on the quality of its citizens and quality of its citizens depend on the quality of their education. Similarly, quality education depends on the quality of teachers and quality of teachers depend on the quality of teacher educators.
Teacher educators are the key players in DIET colleges and other teacher training institutions for improving the quality and standard of education at the elementary level. They are like a burning lamp which give light to the mind and hearts of pupil teachers.
DIET teacher training institutions are generally treated as teacher production hub or centre at the elementary level. At present there are only seven DIETs in Meghalaya namely DIET Cherrapunjee, DIET Rusubelpara, DIET Thadlaskein, DIET Nongpoh, DIET Baghmara, DIET Nongstoin and DIET Tura. Some of the main roles of DIET institutions are:(i)Preparation of Elementary and Upper Primary School Teachers through Pre-service and In-service Education and Training. (ii) Development of District specific curricular and Teaching Learning Materials. (iii) Support to Resource Centres at sub-District levels i.e. to BRCs and CRCs. (iv) Research to build and improve understanding of Elementary Education in the District. (v) Activities to improve and support community involvement in Elementary Education. (vi) Support to Training Programmes in Adult Education. (vii) Strengthening of their own capacities and (viii) Initiatives to upgrade the quality of teaching, Learning Process at the District Elementary School Level. But the number of pupil teachers keep on increasing at a rapid rate. There is an urgent need to increase the number of DIETs teaching institutions and the number of teaching faculties. Since a huge numbers of pupil teachers are generated every year from all the seven DIETs in our state, the roles and responsibilities of teacher educators are highly appreciable. The professional development of teacher educators should be encouraged at all levels. They should be motivated and provided with different incentives so that they are satisfied and content in their profession which ultimately leads to effectiveness.
