Abstract

In the personality of a teacher, his emotional creativity is an important counterpart. In current study, researchers have carried out an investigation of emotional creativity of trainee teachers of pre-service and in-service trainee teachers. The objectives were to compare the emotional creativity of Trainee teachers of Pre-service Courses and in-service Courses and to analyze the major aspects of emotional creativity of Trainee teachers. The findings suggest that Trainee Teachers of in-service training programme are more emotionally creative. On two aspects of emotional creativity i.e. emotional preparedness and effectiveness, trainee teachers of in-service course are much better, whereas on the aspect of novelty, there is no significant difference between trainee teachers of pre-service course and in-service course.
