Every educational program relies heavily on its teachers. Any step in the educational process is ultimately the teacher's responsibility to execute. The goal of teacher training courses is to equip future educators with the knowledge and skills they'll need to handle the difficulties of their career and help their students succeed. Teachers, both new and seasoned, may do better in the classroom if they have access to the latest educational tools and techniques, and if they regularly participate in professional development opportunities that focus not only on subject knowledge but also on pedagogical content knowledge and attitude. This book will help you develop the skills necessary to fulfill the responsibilities of a teacher in today's society, including those of an educator, communicator, guide, organizer, facilitator, innovator, researcher, and reflective practitioner. This book provides a broad overview of teacher education from a variety of academic, societal, and political vantage points. It examines the whole spectrum of teacher education and training in today's more normative and regulated society, from pre-service education through post-graduate teaching experience.
