摘要：The purpose of the study was to examine the extent of relevance of the prevalent B.Ed. Curriculum regarding the development of the teaching skills. To achieve this objective, data were collected from two sources: Review of the B.Ed. Curriculum course outlines and the related textbooks. Interviews were conducted from the teachers of the selected Colleges of Education and information regarding the practices of their teaching for the development of teaching skills. These were analyzed to see any content related to teaching skills and any practice exercises for the development of these skills. The analysis of B.Ed. Curriculum outlines and recommended textbooks revealed that they did not contain appropriate knowledge, examples and practice exercises required for the development of these teaching skills. It is, therefore, recommended that B.Ed. Curriculum may be revised and appropriate topics related to the teaching skills for effective teaching should be emphasized in the curriculum for enhancing the teacher education quality. Teachers of Colleges of Education themselves were not conversant with the teaching skills and methods of development of these skills in prospective teachers. It is further recommended that appropriate teaching learning materials for development of these skills be developed for the use of prospective teachers and teachers of Colleges of Education.
