As teacher education appropriately focuses more and more on the importance of clinical practice, this practical yet intellectual approach outlines vital elements of true partnership between university and clinical partners. The powerful learning communities that form, allowing mentors to develop needed leadership skills, are studied and replicable field-specific practices are identified throughout. -- Dona R. Gibson, Professor of Education and Psychology, Friends University As we think about teachers and all the skills they must possess to address our students' multiple and many diverse needs, we must continue to remind ourselves of the key role teachers play in shaping students' futures and that of our society. Likewise, we must not forget that teachers need ongoing professional support and engagements that are not only limited to, but also extend beyond school sites. As a teacher educator, I always recap with my students that there is no such a thing as a perfect curriculum, but there is such a thing as a perfect teacher. Indeed, perfect teachers make everything possible; but, they do not augment or sustain their perfection in isolation - they rely on their fellow teachers through collaborations, peer engagements as well as mentorship, and support from learning communities that help cultivate teacher to teacher mentality. This edited volume highlights what it truly takes to foster supportive environments for practicing teachers. -- Irina S. Okhremtchouk, Assistant Professor, Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College, Arizona State University It has often been said that the teaching profession can be described as a very lonely profession as we enter our classrooms, close our doors and practice our profession with little professional interaction with other teachers or teacher educators. This book dispels these notions and provides examples of how all of us, as teacher educators, can work together to improve not only our practice and the practice of fellow teachers and teacher educators but also to improve the field of teacher education. Whether it be thru the development of professional learning communities or strengthening the student teaching triad, this book provides examples of how purposeful practice is important in our profession. -- D.John McIntyre, Professor Emeritus and Senior Visiting Professor in Curriculum Studies, Southern Illinois University
