Managing Partnership in Teacher Training and Development

TRAMA

The essays in "Managing Partnership in Teacher Training and Development" argue for a policy of professional development which links initial teacher education, continuing professional development and research. The book describes how the trend towards work-based training has grown out of good practice in managing professional development, explores the policy and practical management issues of partnership for education providers and sets the development of partnership within the political context of teacher education and the development of teacher professionalism. Finally, the book considers the planning and management issues that are necessary to establish effective practice in the management of career-long professional development in education.

NOTE EDITORE

The trend towards partnership between higher education and other education providers is a dominant theme of 1990s education. Political attention has focused on initial teacher training, but in this book, the authors argue for a policy of professional development which links initial teacher education, continuing professional development, and research. Written by experienced teachers and teacher educators, this book examines current practice and discusses the policy and practical management issues which need to be addressed in planning and managing career-long teacher education, development and research within a partnership framework.
