REVIEWER’S COMMENTS ON THE PUBLICATION
A very useful source of information for prospective teachers especially those who want to develop professionally and teach chemistry as a second subject at lower secondary schools.
I specifies all the requirements and prerequisites needed to become a well educated teacher of any subject chemistry including.
Written in a formal language, sometimes difficult to follow but reliable and up-to date.

Message: Official document relating to the ministerial directives with reference to teacher training in case of chemistry.
Quite difficult to follow as far a form of language is concerned but a good source of information - reliable as it contains regulations for teacher development.
