This book makes a significant contribution to a hitherto much
neglected area. The book brings together a wide range of papers on
a scale rarely seen with a geographic spread that enhances our
understanding of the complex journey undertaken by those who aspire
to become teachers of teachers. The authors, from more than ten
countries, use a variety of approaches including narrative/life
history, self-study and empirical research to demonstrate the
complexity of the transformative search by individuals to establish
their professional identity as teacher educators. The book offers
fundamental and thoughtful critiques of current policy, practice
and examples of established structures specifically supporting the
professional development of teacher educators that may well have a
wider applicability. Many of the authors are active and leading
persons in the international fields of teacher education and of
professional development. The book considers: novice teacher
educators, issues of transition; identity development including
research identity; the facilitation and mentoring of teacher
educators; self-study research including collaborative writing, use
of stories; professional development within the context of
curriculum and structural reform. Becoming a teacher is recognised
as a transformative search by individuals for their teaching
identities. Becoming a teacher educator often involves a more
complex and longer journey but, according to the many travel
stories told here, one that can be a deeply satisfying experience.
This book was published as a special issue of Professional
Development in Education.
