| Summary: | Kelly (1996) maintains that a teacher needs a great deal of information
in order to function well in his/her profession. The expectation of a
teacher is so high that many are unable to cope with the demands of
the trade. There are so many resources and avenues for teachers out
there to be able to go beyond the norm of the profession. With the
nature of training many new teachers are exposed to, there are so
many things that they can do to help their learners. Yet, when asked
if they had been able to go beyond the norm of the profession, many
confessed that they do not usually have the time needed to seek
out, read and organise information so as to be able to practice more
than what is stated in the textbook or even the syllabus. This paper
will explain the effort taken by the Education Faculty of Universiti
Teknologi Malaysia in instilling collaboration amongst its teacher-
trainees in building a material databank by the teacher-trainees and
for the teacher-trainees. |
