Pedagogies of Practicum Post-Pandemic Reflections on Innovation in Practice Teaching

“This thoughtfully constructed volume not only documents creative and responsive teacher education program designs and practices from around the world, but also gives insight into the principles, processes, and learnings of the teacher educators who collaborated to create coherent and meaningful practicum experiences in their contexts.”

This book provides an excellent global overview of practi¬cum stories and will inspire thoughtful reflection to enhance quality teacher education.”
