Abstract :

This paper provides a review on the attributes expected of a quality teacher in the training of the top 20 universities in the world particularly in teaching and learning. The attributes, namely: values, skills and knowledge (V, S, K) were benchmarked against the VSK generated from provisional Malaysian- Based Teaching and Learning Guiding Principles (MBTLGP) developed by Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris (UPSI), Malaysia. The findings indicated that there are commonalities and differences of V, S, K by both MBTLGP and the top 20 universities in preparing a quality teacher in their teacher education programmes. The MBTLGP does cover all the V, S, K indicated in the synthesised VSK of the top 20 universities.
