Ade concluded that no amount of time spent in college or university will complete the preparation of teachers for classroom tasks .

17. Cole took the position that teachers like doctors , nurses , lawyers etc. must continue with their education after graduation. Constantly appearing new technics and materials makes in service education absolutely necessary. Fowler contended that if teachers are to become real leaders in their respective institutes they must be provided with a programme of in service training which is concerned with doing not concerned with listening .
