About the book
VIBE 2025 (Voices of India’s Budding Educators) — a vibrant collection of scholarly chapters authored jointly by faculty members and student teachers from Teacher education department. This anthology reflects the spirit of collaborative academic inquiry and explores the dynamic contours of education in contemporary India. True to the ethos of our Gandhian University, this volume embraces the ideals of Nai Talim, where experiential learning, critical thought, and value-based education form the foundation of teacher preparation. The chapters in this book address significant themes such as constitutional values, sustainable development, NEP 1986, NPE 2020 and NCF 2005, globalisation, inclusive practices, Gandhian thought, and the
challenges and opportunities in Indian education. What makes this volume unique is the blend of youthful insight and academic grounding — student teachers have brought fresh perspectives, while faculty co-authors have enriched the discourse with experience and context. Together, they have created a space where ideas meet action and inquiry fuels innovation.
We extend our heartfelt appreciation to all the student contributors whose enthusiasm and critical engagement shine through every page, and to the faculty collaborators for their encouragement and academic support throughout this Venture. We gratefully acknowledge the institutional leadership, the editorial and review team, and all well-wishers who helped bring this book to life. We also extend our sincere thanks for the ethical use of select AI-generated images, which added visual clarity and appeal to the publication. In the words of Mahatma Gandhi, “Education means all-round drawing out of the best in child and man — body, mind and spirit.” May this book inspire such holistic growth in every learner and educator. May the voices in this book echo far and wide, shaping classrooms, communities, and the future of our nation. While every effort has been made to ensure accuracy and quality, any inadvertent errors or omissions will be sincerely acknowledged and corrected in our forthcoming editions
