摘要：This study aimed to find out the perceptions of teacher educators and pre-service teachers towards the effectiveness of teacher training programme. It also examined their views on what extent to which the teacher training curriculum could prepare teachers towards innovative thinking and global perspectives. The findings have raised the implication that the current teacher training programme for pre-service teachers is not meeting the aspired objectives. The curriculum seems to have little emphasis on globalisation, less flexible and less relevant to current changes and developments. These shortcomings may stand as obstacles in the policy makers’ dreams of establishing quality education through teacher training programmes.
