The Missing Links in Teacher Education Design by G Hoban

Rather than promote a single teacher education design, this book discusses new ways to think about the problem. Key to such thinking is considering teacher education not independent elements but as a combination of links. This book offers four key links: conceptual ties across the university curriculum; theory-practice links between school and university settings; social-cultural links among the participants; and personal links that shape the identity of teacher educators.

"This ground-breaking, internationally oriented book brings together a number of excellent contributions on new directions in the design of teacher education programsMoreover, the ideas are connected through a clear and stimulating conceptual framework that has the potential to guide effective innovation in the field." (Fred A.J. Korthagen, Professor, Utrecht University, The Netherlands)

"Teacher education program design demands a conceptualization built on strong interlinked foundations so that coursework and practice complement each another as a dynamic whole. Hoban offers an outstanding explication of exactly that through his Missing Links in Teacher Education. In so doing he offers a way of enhancing the quality of teacher education programs for those scholars passionate about, and committed to the work of teaching and learning about teaching. The Missing Links offers a provocative challenge to all involved in teacher education program design." (John Loughran, Foundation Chair, Curriculum & Pedagogy, Monash University, Australia)
