Professional Development of Teachers at Higher Education Level in Pakistan

APP: (January, 17, 2007) The three-day conference on `Professional Development of Teachers at Higher Education Level in Pakistan' has been organized by the National Academy of Higher Education, Higher Education Commission (HEC).

Dr Shahid Siddiqui, Professor at Lahore School of Economics read the paper - Teachers’ Development Through Self Understanding - in the Conference. He said, “Most of the teachers' education programmes in Pakistan focus only on pedagogical change without tapping the areas of conceptual and attitudinal changes thus underestimating the holistic view of change. A meaningful change can never take place until teachers reconceptualize some basic educational notions that inspire the new practices."
