Teacher Education and Knowledge Transformation in Times of Change
Series:
This volume of the Teacher Education Policy in Europe (TEPE) book series presents original research that contributes to the knowledge base in teacher education research, including international perspectives. The chapters focus on themes on practice-based research for transformation, curriculum development and the student experience, as well as continuous professional development in times of change.
The contributing authors emphasise how the purpose of education is not just about transferring knowledge but about transforming the knowledge that is taught and learned through various transformation processes that occur at different levels both outside and within the educational system. The book highlights the need for teacher educators and curriculum makers to continuously reflect on aspects of powerful knowledge.
