INTRODUCTION
Improving the performance of the Elementary school education is the most
important challenge in elementary education. This is because of the fact that
they play an important role in the educational system. Although efforts have
been made to improve the quality of teachers, yet little has been achieved in
this regard. When we talk about the materials they teach, their teaching skills
and motivation levels , it is felt that much is to be done. Therefore some broad
strategies have been taken up for the development and strengthening of teachers
education by setting up Teacher Education Institutes.
With a view to restructuring and reorganizing of Elementary Teacher Education
in our State, District Institutes of Education and Training (DIETS) have been
set up in all the Districts of the State to provide academic and resource
support to elementary school teachers. District Institute of Education and
Training, therefore serve as per needs of the district at its capacity. In the
