Abstract
Globalisation has become an enduring reality of our times and more so in the field of
education. Teachers are the harbingers of change in the global economy and school
teachers have a major role in shaping the attitude of the society towards all social and
economic phenomena including that of globalisation. At the Regional Centre of IGNOU
situated at Cochin, Kerala an unique training programme was conducted for a year to
train school teachers of the Atomic Energy Education Society (AEES) one of the elite
educational organisations of the country in ICT applications. This opportunity was
utilised by the researchers to conduct a study that holds multiple portends for policy
makers to channel the direction of the forces affecting the globalisation of education.
