PRAISE FOR PREPARING TEACHERS FOR A CHANGING WORLD "This collection of chapters represents the best of contemporary thinking and writing on teaching and is built upon a conceptual framework of enormous importance to every teacher educator. Relevant to a variety of audiences, this book appeals for greater coherence and consistency across preparation programs. It is essential reading for all teacher educators as they renew preparation programs and focus on the needs of today's schools." --DAVID G. IMIG, president and chief executive officer, American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education (AACTE) "Preparing Teachers for a Changing World is by far the most comprehensive, thorough, deeply knowledge-based treatment of teacher education anywhere in the literature. A jewel of a book in a field badly in need of intellectual and moral leadership." --MICHAEL FULLAN, author, Leading in a Culture of Change "Well organized, meticulously researched, and well written, I have no doubt that Preparing Teachers for a Changing World will make a significant contribution to the field of teacher education. The authors have done an exceptionally good job of capturing the major trends, differing perspectives, and many challenges of teacher education today, while putting forth a vision for the future that is solidly grounded in research and in current and evolving knowledge." --SONIA NIETO, professor, University of Massachusetts at Amherst "The knowledge base for teacher preparation and teaching is maturing and becoming very relevant to practice. This state-of-the-art compendium is essential reading for teacher educators committed to preparing professionals who can teach so that all children will, in fact, learn." --ARTHUR E. WISE, president, National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education

Prior to this he was Centennial Professor of Psychology and Education and codirector of the Learning Technology Center at Vanderbilt University. Early works by Bransford and his colleagues in the 1970s included research in the areas of human learning, memory, and problem solving, and helped shape the "cognitive revolution" in psychology. Author of seven books and hundreds of articles and presentations, Bransford is an internationally renowned scholar in cognition and technology. He and his colleagues have developed and tested innovative computer, videodisc, CD-ROM, and Internet programs including the Jasper Woodbury Problem Solving Series in Mathematics, The Scientists in Action Series, and the Little Planet Literacy Series--programs that have received many awards.
