Description du livre
This Open Access volume aims to inspire innovative and culturally-responsive transformations in teacher education practices and policies within Europe and beyond in the context of teacher shortage. It amalgamates the collaborative efforts during several years between the Center for Teacher Education and Educational Research (ZLSB) at TU Dresden University of Technology (Saxony, Germany) and eleven international partners. The articles inside explore different viewpoints on teacher shortage and endeavors to systematically navigate the intricacies of the problem in light of contemporary political shifts, institutional paradigms of universities, and the theoretical contemplations of the respective nations. Researchers from Australia, the Czech Republic, Denmark, the United Kingdom, Germany, Ireland, Japan, Poland, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United States venture into new territories by intertwining the discourse about teacher shortage with alternative routes into the teaching vocation.
