Omschrijving
This study of teacher preparation policy and practice in Ireland from Independence in 1921 to the present, highlights, within an international context, the extent to which the focus of preparation moved from nation-building until 1967, when free second-level education was introduced, to one concerned with improving the country’s human capital.
“It is a great addition to the literature, not just on teacher education, but on education generally in Ireland. The authors have done a great service to Irish education by documenting the teacher education system so thoroughly. The book includes an excellent summary of developments during the past five years (which have been many and multi-faceted) and will be very useful for policy-makers in Ireland and overseas.”
Professor Tom O'Donoghue is Professor of Education in the Graduate School of Education, the University of Western Australia. Associate Professor Judith Harford is Director of Teacher Education Programmes at the School of Education, University College Dublin, Ireland. Professor Teresa O’Doherty is Dean of Education at Mary Immaculate College, The University of Limerick, Ireland.
