Knowledge, Policy and Practice in Teacher Education reviews the
evolution of education policy on initial teacher education as an
indicator of the knowledge that is considered important for nation
building. It also looks at research on approaches and structures to
initial teacher learning as an indication of the intellectual and
moral direction to which schooling must aspire. Contributors look
at these dynamics across a range of societies including Australia,
the Czech Republic, England, Finland, Hong Kong, Israel, Italy,
Japan, South Korea, Mexico, Russia, and the USA. Using a review of
the literature approach within a comparative framework, the book
seeks to answer the following questions for each country: What has
been the evolution of different approaches to learning to teach in
each setting, and what factors have influenced change over the
years? What are the underlying theories that characterize past and
current thinking about the knowledge, skills and dispositions
needed by teachers and what evidence is used to support these
theories? What does a review on the state of the knowledge about
teacher education over the past 30 years reveal about the evolution
of the research and knowledge traditions that have supported
current and past innovations in teacher education? Maria Teresa
Tatto and Ian Menter explore international variability in different
conceptions of knowledge in the context of learning to teach and
explore the way in which national and international influences
interact in the developing trajectories of teacher education policy
and practice, considering what knowledge is considered important
for teachers to have.
