Teachers play an indispensable role in education, most particularly in the lives of the students. What defines a teacher is her/hisaptitude to teach students and with a positiveinfluence on them.Generally, the role of a teacher in education specifically, goes beyond teaching. Over time, teachers were given a specific curriculum to follow, as well as instructions on how to go about teaching the curriculum. But, in today’s world, teaching has different faces, and a teacher has to carry out the role of beingamentor, external parent, counsellor, role model etc.
Further, acquiring knowledge alone is not Education, but it is that what makes us better individuals’ and so determines the future of the nation. Education should help one to obtainlifelong learning skills, there by live well, behave well to others and contribute in building better society.
“Mahatma Gandhi”the father of Nation has said beautifully “by education I mean an all-round drawing out of the best in child and man-body, mind and spirit. Literacy is not the end of education or even the beginning.” Here in our “BEA college of Education” we are making an all effort to bring out the best in our student-teachers so that they are equipped to do the same when they become the real teachers later. Today’s education is all about use of ICT in class rooms. Nevertheless, what I would like to say is technology cannot replace teacher and teacher should not ignore technology.
In BEA College of education, all the activities are organized here as a team work by the faculty to achieve this common goal. Thus BEA College of educationusher the students that we provide the best quality education by moulding your character.
Wish you all the best

ABOUT US

The Bapuji Educational Association is one of the oldest and most prestigious educational institutions in Karnataka. It came into existence in 1958 with the sole purpose of starting a first grade college in Davanagere. It intended to cater to the needs of those who aspired for higher education. All the lovers of higher education volunteered their service whole heartedly in building up this association. Money flowed in as the donors contributed splendidly. Though imparting higher education to the aspirants was the Association's main objective, it gave attention to start a wide range of schools and colleges according to the situational needs and demands. Today the association has grown to be a big tree, like the banyan,with all its twigs and branches. It runs schools and colleges right from Nursery to Post Graduate Courses, from Diploma to Engineering, Nursing to Medical. It also runs Pharmacy and Dental Colleges. The left out areas are only Animal Husbandry and Agriculture. There are more than 45 schools and colleges including service facilities, now working under the banner of the Bapuji Educational Association.
