How does effective teacher-education programme define the role of teachers?
Show Hint
Effective teachers guide and support students in their learning journey, fostering critical thinking, problem-solving, and independent learning skills.
The question asks how the passage defines the role of teachers.
We need to find the sentence in the passage that describes what a teacher is or does.
The second sentence of the passage says: Teachers are not mere transmitters of knowledge, but facilitators of learning.
This sentence provides a direct definition of the teacher's role according to the effective education model described.
Option (D) matches the second part of this definition exactly.
Option (A) is explicitly stated as what teachers are not.
