Call for Special Issue: A 2025 Vision for Technology and Teacher Education
Guest editors: Significant evidence exists of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic (and other recent events) on teacher education. For instance, the pandemic highlighted problems and gaps in teacher preparation (i.e., online education), it showcased strengths in teacher educators’ responding to a changing world (i.e., caring pedagogy), and it revealed opportunities for continued growth and evolution in the field.
This special issue of the Journal of Technology and Teacher Education will be a collection of peer-reviewed visionary thought pieces addressing the future of teacher education. Authors will be asked to address three related questions tied to teacher education in 2025.
- Given everything we have seen over the past few years as a result of COVID-19 (and other events), what is one key goal for teacher education to achieve by 2025?
- What factors are likely to enable or prevent achievement of this goal?
- If technology is not directly related to the goal, how do you envision the role of technology in reaching this goal?
Please note: Authors must address or focus on one specific area that responds to a challenge, strength, or opportunity in the field of teacher education. Also, note that these thought pieces should be based in both theory and research; however, the goal is not to present an empirical study.
