TEACHER PLUS: Created in 1989, Teacher Plus is a
magazine aimed primarily at the schoolteacher. It
is a forum within which teachers can raise their
concerns, discuss ideas, and share and update their
knowledge. Teacher Plus discusses alternative ways
of thinking and doing within the context of the
Indian classroom, while recognizing the constraints
that most teachers face, day to day. In addition,
its aim is to foster a sense of community among
teachers, of being a part of an important group of
change agents. Teacher Plus is published monthly
from Hyderabad. It draws from a large pool of
contributors from across India, persons with
experience in varied aspects of education, from
primary school teaching to tackling board exams to
the place of art and craft in learning, to child
development and classroom management. Each month
brings the reader a mix of thought-provoking
features and hands-on activities that can be
adapted for use in most classrooms. Teacher Plus
is not a scholarly journal. It is a magazine for
the practicing teacher who wants to keep up with
trends in education and find ways to energise her
classroom with new ideas and approaches.

LANGUAGE AND LANGUAGE TEACHING (From the Aziz Premji
University): Published twice a year in January and July,
Language and Language Teaching (LLT) reaches out to language
teachers, researchers and teacher educators on issues and
practices relevant to language teaching. The primary focus
of the publication is language pedagogy in elementary
schools. LLT proposes to establish a dialogue between theory
and practice so that practice contributes to theory as much
as theory informs practice. The purpose is to make new ideas
and insights from research on language and its pedagogy
accessible to practitioners while at the same time inform
theorists about the constraints of implementation of new
ideas. https://tinyurl.com/yj23k6wo
