Globalisation and Teacher Education in the BRICS Countries
This edited volume critically engages with the debate on teacher education systems in the BRICS countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa), considering the effects of contemporary globalisation processes on each differing geographic location. Written by leading researchers from the BRICS countries, chapters reveal the processes present in these countries regarding the often-problematic relationships between research, policy, and practice, as well as the extent of integration between higher education institutions and basic schools, with particular emphasis on teachers’ professional development. With a particular focus on the role of research and positioning of the school pra...

The Palgrave Handbook of Teacher Education in Central and Eastern Europe
This handbook provides a comprehensive, scholarly overview of teacher education in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), since the fall of communism in 1989. It looks closely at recent trends, emerging practices, and possible futures for teacher education in twenty-one CEE countries – reaching from the Balkans, through the Visegrad Group, to Eastern Europe and the Baltics. The contributing authors reflect on their own countries’ uphill battles and journeys towards modernising teacher education over the last three decades. Subsequently, contemporary teacher education policies, structures, and practices are explored in light of Bologna reforms, EU higher education policies, and globalisation processes. Each chapter also offers some predictions about likely future trajectories – with concrete suggestions on how to develop and improve teacher education systems in response to the growing pressures of neoliberal ideologies. The Palgrave Handbook of Teacher Education in Central and Eastern Europe provides a valuable reference that enriches the work of scholars, students, policymakers, and practitioners across CEE and beyond.
Differentiated Instruction Around the World
14 different countries, various research methods, 1 topic: Differentiated Instruction. With increasingly diverse student populations in schools, the establishment of inclusive classrooms has become a top international priority. Teachers around the world are urged to differentiate their instruction in order to support all students’ learning needs. Although there is research on the topic, there are still important gaps to explore, especially the underrepresented international research output. This book tackles such limitations and provides a first ever publication concerning global insights into differentiated instruction. A total of 14 countries from 5 continents provide empirical evidence, theoretical and practical approaches to the topic. The book wraps up with a contribution from Prof. Dr. John Hattie, University of Melbourne, who shares eight theses to help the continuing debate and research on differentiated instruction.
The Palgrave Handbook of Teacher Education Research
This handbook presents a timeless, comprehensive, and up-to-date resource covering major issues in the field of teacher education research. In a global landscape where migration, inequality, climate change, political upheavals and strife continue to be broadly manifest, governments and scholars alike are increasingly considering what role education systems can play in achieving stability and managed, sustainable economic development. With growing awareness that the quality of education is very closely related to the quality of teachers and teaching, teacher education has moved into a key position in international debate and discussion. This volume brings together transnational perspectives to provide insight and evidence of current policy and practice in the field, covering issues such as teacher supply, preservice education, continuing professional learning, leadership development, professionalism and identity, comparative and policy studies, as well as gender, equity, and social justice.
Research Anthology on Music Education in the Digital Era
Music is a vital piece of life that not only allows individuals a chance to express themselves, but also an opportunity for people and communities to come together. Music has evolved in recent years as society turns toward a digital era where content can be shared across the world at a rapid pace. Music education and how it is spread has a number of possibilities and opportunities in this new era as it has never been easier for people to access music and learn. Further study on the best practices of utilizing the digital age for music education is required to ensure its success.

This comprehensive reference source also explores the implementation of music for learning in traditional classrooms. Covering a range of topics such as music integration, personalized education, music teacher training, and music composition, this reference work is ideal for scholars, researchers, practitioners, academicians, administrators, instructors, and students.
Polarised Logics of Pedagogy: Crises, Contexts and Classrooms in the Global South
This novel book demonstrates the polarised logics that exist between exploring cultural, structural, political, and historical contexts as a primary focus for pedagogical research versus an interventionist agenda that isolates pedagogy and its components from their environments. Combining theoretical discussions with empirical evidence and case studies, the book provides a synthesising approach to both research and educational planning, recognising pedagogy as an open system while acknowledging that not all teaching methods are equal when it comes to enhancing learning. Considering the so-called learning crisis and learning poverty in the context of Sustainable Development Goal 4 in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, this book is also sensitive to concerns about the mental health and wellbeing of young people and the sustainability of the planet. Ultimately providing a timely, informed, and balanced discussion of these issues, this book will appeal to researchers, scholars, and post-graduate and doctoral students working in pedagogical research or international and comparative education, and anyone interested in the relationship between education and international development.
