Description
The original essays in this volume examine reform-related issues in teacher education in Great Britain, Canada, Japan, Ukraine, United States, and Western Europe. A distinguished group of educators reviews the social context of the teacher, the economics and value of teaching, the pace of change, government policy and teacher control of the profession, and the evolving role of the teacher and education system in the face of political and social upheaval.
