Opis

This volume analyses how teaching internships that support teacher education programs are conducted across the globe. Teaching internships are important learning experiences at teacher training programs — a core experiential component that enable teachers-in-training to acquire skills in practical setups.

The book takes the readers through various aspects of teaching internships. Extending its application to both national and international teacher education programs, to include teacher training in elementary, primary, secondary, and higher secondary schools, the volume discusses various existing teaching internship models, important guidelines and best practices, assessment practices, typical challenges as well as future opportunities for effective teaching internships. It also shares expertise, insights, and know-how from scholars around the world on planning and executing excellent internships for these programs.

Drawn from expert research, this book will be of interest to students, teachers and researchers of education, teacher education, sociology of education, and politics of education. It will also be useful for teacher trainees, academicians, teacher educators, policymakers, school teachers, curriculum developers, teacher training institutes, and universities offering teacher education programs.
