Leading Change in Teacher Education: Lessons from Countries and Education Leaders around the Globe (Teacher Quality and School Development)

Thuwayba Al Barwani, Maria Assunção Flores, David Imig

Continued effort to change all aspects of teacher education, including ways of learning, methods of practice, institution interaction and assessment of teaching ability, in order to fulfill the desire to offer inclusive and equitable teaching for all, is a serious consideration. In response to this increased attention on cross-national campaigns, Leading Change in Teacher Education features discussions covering what has been done, how and why the change has happened, the journey itself and the challenges encountered along the way, alongside contributions from international academics who share their reflections and suggestions for a way forward, despite a global shortage of teachers.

Strategies surrounding the design and delivery of education now center on improving how teachers are prepared, supported and evaluated. Leading Change in Teacher Education captures the stories of international change leaders by:
  • ​Providing details of both the successes and challenges faced
  • Presenting innovative practices in teacher education from around the world
  • Describing the strategies put in place to ensure that teacher education is developing
The topics discussed are relevant for educators, policymakers and international organizations involved in the design and implementation of programmes in teacher education. Leading Change in Teacher Education is also an invaluable resource for those looking to increase the changes occurring within teacher education.
