On the CLC. [][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][] TEACHER PLUS: Created in 1989, Teacher Plus is a magazine aimed primarily at the schoolteacher. It is a forum within which teachers can raise their concerns, discuss ideas, and share and update their knowledge. Teacher Plus discusses alternative ways of thinking and doing within the context of the Indian classroom, while recognizing the constraints that most teachers face, day to day. In addition, its aim is to foster a sense of community among teachers, of being a part of an important group of change agents. Teacher Plus is published monthly from Hyderabad. It draws from a large pool of contributors from across India, persons with experience in varied aspects of education, from primary school teaching to tackling board exams to the place of art and craft in learning, to child development and classroom management. Each month brings the reader a mix of thought-provoking features and hands-on activities that can be adapted for use in most classrooms. Teacher Plus is not a scholarly journal. It is a magazine for the practicing teacher who wants to keep up with trends in education and find ways to energise her classroom with new ideas and approaches. https://www.teacherplus.org/ Links to useful sites on how to become a teacher ------------------------------------------------------------ Shaping Young Minds: 6 Different Routes to Become a Teacher in India: https://www.mindler.com/blog/how-to-become-a-teacher-in-india/ What do Higher Secondary School Teachers do? https://tinyurl.com/ye3rux7p Teacher: How to Become a Teacher, Courses, Jobs, Scope, Salary (CollegeDunia) https://tinyurl.com/yju8j47j 7th pay commission pay scale for Primary, High School, PGT qualified, CBSC, AICET Teachers https://www.7thpaycommissioninfo.in/pay-scale-for-teachers/ Resources for teachers – books and magazines – online resources NCERT https://ncert.nic.in/journals-and-periodicals.php FROM THE ARVIND GUPTA TOYS SITE: "A Million Books for a Billion People": Downloadable films, books and articles by Arvind Gupta, Resources for Children by the Nature Conservation Foundation, Bangalore; 103 books illustrated by artist-activist Arvind Deshpande; books about scientists; books on science; community health guides (Hesperian Foundation); folk tales of science; books on chemistry; books on mathematics; books on education; books on anti-war/peace themes; books on the environment; Isaac Asimov's Science Fact masterpieces; children's books (NBT); Sunshine Magazine (Pune); Russian Classics in English; Inspiring Books; Books by Laurie Baker; Science Comics and Picture Books by prof Jean Pierre Petit; also books like The Single-Teacher School (and other books by the distinguished educationist JP Naik); books by DD Kossambi; and other titles in Hindi and Marathi. https://www.arvindguptatoys.com/ Sandarbh, a bimonthly in Hindi, was conceived in 1994 to meet this need. Sandarbh means ‘context’, and carries articles on various topics in Science and Education. These articles are meant to be a resource primarily for middle and high school teachers and students, who teach and learn in Hindi. The articles are usually in a informal style, and as far as possible are free of jargon. The magazine also serves as a means of communication between teachers across the country who write to us about their classroom experiences, activities and experiments that have worked and failed. Articles submitted to Sandarbh are often in Hindi, though many of them are in English and other languages as well, and are translated for publication. https://www.eklavya.in/magazine-activity/sandarbh-magazines Contemporary Education Dialogue serves as an independent open forum for researchers and practitioners to sustain a critical engagement with issues in education by engendering a reflective space that nurtures the discipline and promotes inter-disciplinary perspectives. https://journals.sagepub.com/home/ced LANGUAGE AND LANGUAGE TEACHING (From the Aziz Premji University): Published twice a year in January and July, Language and Language Teaching (LLT) reaches out to language teachers, researchers and teacher educators on issues and practices relevant to language teaching. The primary focus of the publication is language pedagogy in elementary schools. LLT proposes to establish a dialogue between theory and practice so that practice contributes to theory as much as theory informs practice. The purpose is to make new ideas and insights from research on language and its pedagogy accessible to practitioners while at the same time inform theorists about the constraints of implementation of new ideas. https://tinyurl.com/yj23k6wo AT RIGHT ANGLES: This magazine for school mathematics is published in collaboration with Community Mathematics Centre, Rishi Valley. https://azimpremjiuniversity.edu.in/at-right-angles TEACHERS OF INDIA: Teacher Plus. http://teachersofindia.org/en/partner/teacher-plus THE PRIMARY TEACHER is a quarterly journal , brought out by the National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT), New Delhi.
