To provide the learners with the assessment and evaluation skills that they will require as a teacher.
Bachelor of Education (B.Ed.) at Our Campus
The following listed are some of the scopes of the Bachelor of Education course:-
Teaching: One of the purposes of the BEd course is to produce professional teachers who are capable of teaching various subjects depending on their specialization. The graduates can work as teachers in primary or secondary schools.
Curriculum Developer: It requires an expert who understands the various aspects and importance of education to develop and update the curriculum of certain courses. Such individuals can enhance the education system of the country. The BEd course degree holders can work as curriculum developers and design curricula for any educational institution.
Trainer: Teaching is not an easy job. Just understanding the subject does not make a good teacher. He/She should have skills to make others understand the subject matter and along with it should possess pedagogical skills. They should also have an understanding of child development to interact with them. The Bachelor of Education pass-outs can choose to train primary or secondary level teachers about all these aspects.
Government Sector: Governments launch different campaigns to educate those who are unable to read and write about different topics like public health, traffic safety, Anti-drug, human rights, and many more. It takes an educated and capable person to teach people about these topics. They give them the necessary knowledge and answer any questions that might arise. BEd graduates can be these educators.
NGOs/INGOs: Similar to the government's campaigns, different kinds of NGOs/INGOs launch their programs with similar intentions. They also seek help from the BEd course holders to work for them which can be the perfect job prospect for many.
Researcher: The education field should be up to date which is possible through good research. So if the BEd course scholars are interested in exploration then they can conduct studies to improve the teaching methods and curriculums to strengthen the education system of the country.
