What are the different types of Textbook Analysis?
There are many ways to analysis a textbook, depending on the intent of the analysis. 
Purchasers may want to know reading levels, costs, ancillary costs, etc. After the text has been 
purchased, however, the analysis by the teacher, which can help instruction include the structure 
of the Text, the Focus of the Author, and the usefulness of the learning assists. 
5.1.Preparation of lesson plans and scheme of lesson: 

“We learn 

10%of what we read 
20%of what we hear 
30% of what we see 
50%of what we see &hear 
70% of what we discuss with others 
80% of what we experience personally 
95% of what we teach someone else.” 
 
….William Glasser 
 
The process of learning and adapting to a new job is difficult in any profession. A common 
theme running through research on the experience of the beginning teachers is that the reality 
shock for teachers is more severe than other profession. The beginning teacher is a stranger in a 
new land-the territory of which and whose rules, customs and cultures are unknown but who has 
to assume a significant role in the society. In this situation practice teaching plays a vital role for 
the neo-teachers to adopt and adjust them self to the new situation. 
Practice teaching is meant to help teachers to gain knowledge about the profession and 
the various tools and aids which make for a successful transfer of knowledge from the teacher to 
the taught.

Practice teaching is a crucial phase of any teacher education programmer. It is a 
prerequisite for the development of teaching skills among the prospective pupil-teachers and 
when teaching preparation comes to a desired level, the pupil-teachers are sent for practice-
teaching. 
The purpose of a teacher’s training college is to produce teachers who acquire certain 
identifiable competencies. They will fail in its obligation if its teachers do not know how to 
communicate effectively, manage the class within norms of individual freedom and good 
behavior and who know a little more than bits of information called knowledge of the subject 
matter. They have to realize that all classes of children can’t be handled uniformly and no society 
sends her children to school with equal motivation. Similarly, a single course of study does not 
create all kinds of competencies. Prof. R.P. Singh (1998) former dean research, NCERT 
conducted a study on product evaluation and found that “what is being offered in the name of 
teacher education today is not only irrelevant but very unhelpful. Teaching which a skill area is 
taught theoretically and no one seems to take the curriculum seriously. A B.Ed. degree is a kind 
of driving license and it matters little how a person acquires it. It revealed three things. 
(1) B.Ed. rarely gives its recipients any specific competency. 
(2) Of the theory papers very few could recall even an item or two of what they had learnt 
even in their favorite papers and 
(3) Of the entire course the relevant content formed a very small part of the total’. He has raised the 
questions about the relevance of the B.Ed. Program. 
In order to overcome these questions it is necessary to have a sound programme of teacher 
education whit a sound internship programme. Pre parathion for practice teaching plays an 
important role in the entire programme of teachers’ training. Before pupil-teachers go to schools 
to participate in the practice teaching activities, they should be well prepared for it. The areas of 
preparation for practice.
Teaching are- Enrichment of content knowledge , micro-teaching, simulated teaching, 
observation lesson, preparation and use of teaching aids, knowledge of preparation, 
administration and scoring of tests, planning of lesson, maintenance of records and registers, 
teachers diaries, organization of co-curricular activities, mastering different teaching skills and 
last but not the least is knowledge about preparation of scheme of lesson. 
Every teacher encounters problems on some occasions. For an inexperienced teacher, a 
lesson can become a nightmare. Practice teaching has an important role to play for successful 
teaching in later life of a teacher. For the smooth & successful conduct of practice teaching 
Scheme of lesson plays a vital role. 
A well prepared scheme of lesson plan is a useful aid for pupil-teachers for monouvering his 
teaching in the right direction and completing the task in time. So, let us discuss about the 
meaning, needs and importance and procedure of construction of a scheme of lesson.
