PROFESSIONALISM AND TEACHER EDUCATION GEBUNDEN

This book explores how educators are proactively working to reclaim teacher professionalism by
engaging in exemplary practice and promoting quality education for all. It examines voices in
contemporary Australian teacher education and how professionalism can contribute to achieving
the multiplicity of purposes in education. The work of contemporary teachers and teacher
educators  and perceptions about this work  have changed significantly. In recent times 
governments have identified key issues linked to the quality of teachers  as presented in
multiple inquiries  creating shifts in public policy and increasing regulation. Educators must
work towards improving public and policy maker perceptions of teaching as a profession. Teacher
educators make an important contribution in engaging in ongoing scholarship and debate that
examine research and practice and speak back to managerial discourses on professionalism. It is
through this work that educators shape and re-shape understanding of what it means to be a
professional.
