Description

Teacher education is an important academic domain, as it determines the quality of school education through the teachers produced by teacher education. The changing demands and nature of learners at school force teachers to adapt themselves constantly. This requires change in the methods of teacher training and its curriculum. Thus, researchers specialised in the area of teacher education must find innovative approaches to train preservice and in-service teachers to meet the changing demands. The present chapter presents the research conducted on the developmental aspects of teacher education across the globe in the last two decades. The chapter organises the research inputs in five different areas for ease of understanding: research related to the application of sociological, psychological and technological theories to teacher education practices, research related to transformational changes, research on teacher and teaching competence and research pertaining to teacher reflection. This would help teacher educators, schoolteachers, trainee teachers and policy makers to organise and implement effective teacher training programmes. 2023 selection and editorial matter G.S. Prakasha and Anthony Kenneth; individual chapters, the contributors.
