New York, NY: Routledge.Exploring Different Nations' Approach to Teacher EducationTeacher quality is a key component of the educational policy discourse in countries around the world, with teacher preparation being at the center of many of those discussions. Teacher Education Around the World: Changing Policies and Practices (Darling-Hammond & Lieberman, 2012) considers how a variety of countries in different parts of the world endeavor to improve teacher education-from the preparation of prospective teachers to providing practicing teachers the support and resources needed to improve their teaching. Each chapter, except the last, in this edited book selects a country that traditionally scores highly on international education assessments and examines the teacher education policies in place in that country, the educational discourse around those policies, and the cultural zeitgeist that inform those policies and discourses. The final chapter, written by the book's editors, seeks to find common themes emerging from the earlier chapters that they believe can be transferred to other teacher education programs. Hammond and Lieberman (2012) use international educational assessments to select what they believe are exemplary teacher education programs, with the logical assumptions that if students perform well on these assessments then they are being taught well by good teachers, and thus teachers are being taught well in teacher-preparation programs, being given effective opportunities for professional development, or both.Teacher Education examines policies and practices in several countries in Asia, Europe, and North America that traditionally score highly on international educational evaluations. However, each chapter takes a different approach as each chapter's author or authors examine different aspects of their country's teacher education model. Some chapters endeavor to broadly describe teacher education in the country in its totality, while others focus more on current policies that directly influence teacher education in that county. For example, the particularly strong chapter on Finland's teacher education provides a thorough but concise description of the teacher education process, from training prospective teachers to the continuing education of practicing teachers, as well as addressing the cultural nuances that affect teacher education in the country. At the same time, another strong chapter focused on Canadian teacher education by thoroughly detailing Ontario's initiatives to improve K12 education that began in 2003, and what role in-service teacher training played in those initiatives. Other countries studied in the book include The Netherlands, The United Kingdom, Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia, and The United States. Each of these individual chapters takes a slightly different approach in balancing policy and procedures with the historical and cultural context informing those policies and procedures.The volume is at its strongest when it focuses less on the individual programs and instead chooses to examine the historical and cultural influences underpinning those decisions and debates. Chapter 1 (Finland), Chapter 5 (Hong Kong), and Chapter 6 (Ontario, Canada) do excellent job of conveying the culture of the region as it related to education, how teacher education fit into that culture, and how the culture of education informed the policies, discourse, and decisions enacted affecting teacher education. For example, Chapter 1 describes how the Finnish people view education as an integral part of the Finnish culture and society (Salhberg, 2012, p. 4) and that teachers are held in high-esteem by the Finnish people. This contrasts to Ontario's view of education and view of teachers after a contentious and divisive political campaign targeting K-12 teachers. …" @default.
