Reviews

The contemporary impassioned debates about teacher preparation will be well served by this ambitious handbook. The chapters cover the increasingly robust research literatures on the content and character of teacher preparation, including what is taught, how evolving competence is assessed, the signature pedagogies of teacher education, and the nature of the diverse set of people who enter the profession. The book also summarizes research on teacher educators themselves: what they know and do, the challenges they face, and their own professional learning over time. These more micro analyses are set alongside literatures that deal with the intellectual, political, cultural, economic, and social forces in which teacher preparation is embedded. Forward looking and global in its outlook, this handbook is the definitive resource for understanding the past, present, and future of scholarship on teacher preparation. </p>--Suzanne M.
