This R&D Community will develop a mission statement on European Teacher Education policy. By doing so, it aims to empower the voices of professional Teacher Educators. The basis of our work are surveys and narratives of Teacher Educators in Europe within and beyond ATEE.
Research projects
Empowering TEACHER EDUCATION
Research interest into teacher educators as key persons in teacher education is growing. We are interested in the motivation and job satisfaction of teacher educators in relation to professional values and work-related emotions. In two research projects we want to include the perspective of lived experiences of teacher educators in a great variety of European contexts and beyond.
In a quantitative questionnaire-based survey we asked teacher educators for their views and experiences in their work.
In a qualitative narrative-based study we listen in on the experience of particularly meaningful moments in the work of teacher educators.
