Abstract: This
study analyses the effectiveness of the Integrated B.A.B.Ed./B.Sc.B.Ed.
curriculum based on survey responses from teacher educators using a
structured questionnaire. Feedback was collected across 21 items covering
curriculum objectives, skill development, community engagement, internship,
assessment and use of technology.The chi-square test revealed a statistically
significant variation in responses. This shows that participants responded very
differently to different aspects of the B.A.B.Ed./B.Sc.B.Ed. curriculum. The
survey responses were also collected from principals/HODs of teacher training
colleges using an interview schedule. Results of both the survey show that
while the curriculum positively impacts communication skills, personality
development and practical teaching, there are noticeable gap in the use of
technology during internship and concerns about the mental pressure felt by the
pupil teachers. The study highlights the curriculum`s strength in theory-practice
integration and co-curricular activities. These findings offer suggestions for
improvedB.A.B.Ed./B.Sc.B.Ed.curriculumalignment with NCTE regulation 2014.
Keywords: B.A.B.Ed./B.Sc.B.Ed. Curriculum, Teacher training colleges, NCTE
