Calls for submissions

Advances in Teacher Education is a series that explores teacher education and teacher learning from teacher candidate preparation across the professional life span through teacher leadership development. For decades teacher education researchers, organizations, and policy makers have called for improving and innovating teacher education by creating preparation programs with strong clinical practice and robust opportunities for practicing teacher learning.

Aims and scope

Advances in Teacher Education is a series that explores teacher education and teacher learning from candidate preparation across the professional life span through teacher leadership development. For decades teacher education researchers, organizations, and policy makers have called for improving teacher education by creating programs with strong clinical practice and robust opportunities for teacher learning (e.g. AACTE, 2018; Burns, Baecher, & McCorvey, 2022; CAEP, 2013; Darling-Hammond, 2013; Goodlad, 1990; Jacobs & Burns 2021; NAPDS, 2008; NCATE, 2010; Zeichner, 1990). Simultaneously, the field recognizes the important role teacher leaders play in transforming classrooms and schools. Teacher leaders include those who assume formal roles and those serving in less formal leadership roles from within classrooms. Likewise, inquiries into the professional learning of teacher educators themselves is important scholarship (Goodwin & Kosnick, 2013; Jacobs, Yendol-Hoppey, & Dana, 2015; Snow, Wenner, Dismuke, & Hicks 2019; Vanderlinde, Smith, Murray, & Lunenberg, 2021). This series provides research-based guidance for innovating in teacher education, exploring tensions and challenging assumptions.
