Quality is highly required in the present teaching and learning process
besides quantity. Nobody is expected to get contentment without quality in our life or
career. Innovation is given utmost importance in higher education in the present global
world. National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) was established to
fulfill all these aspects in higher educational institutions. It has stipulated certain
procedures for assessing and preparing students as well as teachers to make them
competent enough to face the challenges in the present day global scenario. The
teachers need to update their knowledge and use new methods effectively in the
classroom sessions to give a new shape to the students. We have to carry this
responsibility until we get retirement. For many decades, we followed the traditional
method of using textbooks for the purpose of instruction. However, the emergence and
implementation of teaching effectiveness assessment techniques revealed that most of
the students do not equip themselves with course content up to the expected level. The
Majority of intellectuals focus on new methods for teaching and learning processes.
Our teaching or learning methods should be intelligible. The objective of this chapter is
to mention the importance of innovative teaching and learning methods and study the
understanding of changes by teachers and also the need for refresher courses for
teachers at regular intervals. A teacher may be a facilitator in the present teaching and
learning scenario. The new methods must certainly be useful to both the students and
the teachers to do research and also develop creativity. The teaching fraternity may
agree with the new methods in the teaching and learning process.
