Innovations in Teacher Education

A Review of Recent Literature

Innovations encompass all phases of teacher education, with emphases on induction activities for new teachers and inservice activities which create new roles for experienced ones; they involve collaborative, integrative, reflective, experiential, and inquiry-oriented practices; and they emphasize teachers as leaders in their own development and schools as learning places for all. Complex networking of institutional structures enriches school-based teacher development; other innovations aim to improve teacher education practices, and change working and learning conditions; some are guided by a vision of teachers as reformers. The report concentrates more on the state of innovative activity, with only general references to the prevalence and impact of these changes.
