God's Giving Me Words for You/Bless This Research
In a study of the writing practices of Christian pastors, interviewees would often pray with and for me. In this essay, I narrate three such instances in which prayer became provocative. Participants' prayers for me inspired-literally, breathed into-my writing processes in transformative ways. Specifically, these experiences with prayer altered my conceptions of what counts as data, practices of reflexivity, and the relationships between intellec…
School-Based Teacher Learning
The theme of this issue of Journal of Teacher Education (JTE) focuses on theory, people, processes, and outcomes related to teacher learning in school-based settings. Teacher educators and researchers agree that externally driven, isolated workshops and conferences have produced little impact on inservice teacher learning and change (Gallimore, Emeling, Saunders, & Goldenberg, 2009; Hawley & Valli, 1999). In contrast, when professional developmen…
Reconceptualizing Teacher Quality to Inform Preservice and Inservice Professional Development
In the previous issue, Marilyn Cochran-Smith and Ana Maria Villegas provided Part One of two JTE articles based on their chapter in the upcoming fifth edition of the Handbook of Research on Teaching (Cochran-Smith et al., in press). Their handbook chapter presents the findings from the review of 1,500 teacher education research studies published between 2000 and 2012. Part One of the two articles described the procedures and theoretical framework…
Taking Stock in 2015
In this issue, Marilyn Cochran-Smith provides the first of two Journal of Teacher Education (JTE) articles based on her chapter in the upcoming fifth edition of the Handbook of Research on Teaching (Cochran-Smith, Villegas, Abrams, Chavez Moreno, Mills, & Stern, in press). Her handbook chapter presents the findings from the review of 1,500 teacher education research studies published between 2000 and 2012. JTE is publishing the review in two part…
Five-Year Retrospective
We have just completed 5 years as editors of Journal of Teacher Education (JTE), having published four full volumes (63-66) and part of one (62), and will hand over the privilege and responsibility to a new team from Michigan State University in the next issue. In one of our first editorials (Knight et al., 2012), we reflected on how views of teacher education research from both within and outside the profession influenced our vision for the jour…
Contextualizing Versus Internationalizing Research on Teacher Education
At our first Journal Editor's Roundtable for Journal of Teacher Education (JTE) 5 years ago at the Educational Research Association (AERA) after assuming the editorship in 2010, we engaged in discussion with various attendees about the nature of the journal and our vision for the duration of our term as editors. We received several questions about whether we accepted international manuscripts because we were perceived by many to be a unique Ameri…
Forum
In this article, we reflect upon “the teacher as writer” and describe how we see this concept and movement developing. We articulate a view of the teacher-writer as empowered advocate. Using examples from our scholarship, we illustrate how this powerful idea can transform research conducted about and with teachers. Finally, we draw attention to the potential of the teacher-writer stance as a means of resistance to current reform efforts that dise…
Performance Assessment of Teaching
Recent challenges concerning the quality of teachers and the programs that prepare them have resulted in responses from professional organizations that have been more widespread and intense than in the past (Robinson, 2011; Wiseman, 2012). The Blue Ribbon Panel on Clinical Preparation (BRP) formed by the National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE), the merger of NCATE and Teacher Education Accreditation Council (TEAC) into…
Taking Stock in 2014
In preparation for JTE's Major Forum at the 2014 AACTE Annual Meeting, Taking Charge of Change, the editorial team engaged in a series of discussions about their perceptions of change in the teacher education knowledge base over the past 10-15 years. We noted that the intended goal of several major reports published during this time period was to impact the nature and quality of education research in general and teacher education research in part…
Research as a Catalyst for Change
Throughout our editorship, we have emphasized the goal of bringing together the three dimensions of teacher education-practice, policy, and research--to address issues or challenges faced by stakeholders in the field (see Editorials 63:1 and 63:2). The theme of the upcoming 2014 American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education (AACTE) Annual Meeting, Taking Charge of Change, provides an opportunity to highlight the role of research to impac…
Teacher Learning and Perceptions Across the Professional Continuum
Learning occurs throughout a teacher's career and as the result of engagement with a multitude of experiences, both within and outside of formal teacher education venues. This volume of Journal of Education contains seven articles that inform the teacher education community about teacher learning across the professional continuum. Within these pages, readers will consider three studies about effective professional development for inservice teache…
Topics in Teacher Education Research
In previous editorials, we have described how criticism of the rigor and relevance of teacher education has influenced our vision for the journal. As a result, we have shared our criteria for determining the quality of manuscripts submitted to Journal of Teacher Education (JTE) and described how certain published articles exemplified these criteria (see Issues 63:1 and 64:2). However, our examples have primarily focused on improving methodology, …
Quality Teacher Education Research
In the first issue of Volume 63, we focused our editorial on the need to improve research in teacher education by increasing the rigor and relevance of studies in the field. We referred to individual studies as in a structure that would serve as a knowledge base for researchers, practitioners, and policy makers (Knight, Lloyd, Arbaugh, Edmondson, Nolan, & Whitney, 2012). As researchers, we need to attend to both the quality of individual bricks a…
Teacher Learning and Standards-Based Instruction
The topic of standards-based instruction is currently at the forefront of conversations about education at every level, including teacher education and professional development. The proliferation of state curriculum standards over the past decade and the recent development of the Common Core State (CCSS) for English/Language Arts and Mathematics as well as the release of the second draft of the Next Generation Science (NGSS) in January 2013 have …
Talking Across the Disciplines
In one of our early editorials (Volume 63:1), we noted the tendency for many teacher education researchers to submit research that has broader teacher education implications to specialized content journals--journals that may or may not be read by teacher educators. We framed this as a choice faced by faculty who walk in two university worlds--for example, science education and teacher education--about their identities as researchers. Our question…
Audience and Authority in the Professional Writing of Teacher-Authors
This article discusses the ways issues of audience and authority are encountered and addressed by classroom teachers who write journal articles for publication. Drawing on an interview study of K-12 classroom teachers who have published articles in NCTE’s journals Language Arts, Voices from the Middle, and English Journal, we show that teachers developed and deployed strikingly different conceptions of audience at different points in their compos…
Beyond the Teacher Certification Program Debate
This theme issue of the Journal of Teacher Education (JTE) considers the impact of various program and policy features on teacher education and professional development. In publishing this issue, the editorial team aims to challenge the field to shift attention from general debates about traditional versus alternative certification programs toward more nuanced conversations about specific features of programs (whether traditional or alternative, …
Adding to the Knowledge Base
In our first two issues as editors of the Journal of Teacher Education (JTE), we expressed a commitment to facilitating the development of the knowledge base in teacher education while strengthening the connections among research, practice, and policy. Sharon Robinson, President and CEO of the American Association of Colleges of Teacher Education (AACTE), provided a guest editorial in our initial issue (JTE Vol. 62, Issue 5), which signaled the i…
Getting Our Own House in Order
Similar to our predecessors and those before them for the past decade, our editorial team has assumed leadership of the Journal of Education (JTE) in times of extreme criticism of educational research and of both preservice and inservice teacher education. Critics from within like Arthur Levine proclaim that everything is broken (Levine, 2011), that there is research into what kind of training produces successful teachers (Levine, 2011), and that…
Examining the Complexity of Assessment and Accountability in Teacher Education
The theme of accountability currently permeates conversations about education at every level, including teacher education and professional development. In our Call for Manuscripts for this theme issue, we invited empirical or conceptual manuscripts addressing assessment and accountability in teacher education that would move the community forward in considering the topics both more precisely and with greater complexity. The range of suggested sub…
Beyond “Is This OK?”
Understandings about genre govern nearly all of the choices writers make. They make choices about form, persuasive moves, conventions, and even ideas through a sense, whether articulated or tacit, of the social situation from which a piece of writing is arising. In a semester‐long high school writing course, the authors engaged students in a series of activities designed to help them develop genre awareness. The goal was to support students in be…
Advancing Research, Practice, and Policy in Teacher Education
We are extremely pleased to have been selected as the new editors of the Journal of Teacher Education (JTE). As the flagship journal of the American Association of Colleges of Teacher Education, JTE provides an outlet for important research in the field as well as a forum for theoretical and conceptual considerations of seminal topics in teacher education. The broad range of topical areas and methodologies represented in the journal; the balanced…
Teacher Transformation in the National Writing Project
Teachers who have participated in Summer Institutes of the National Writing Project (NWP) have often claimed “it changed my life.” What do teachers mean when they say this? What does it mean to “transform” in a professional development setting, and what might researchers and professional development providers gain from an understanding of teacher transformation as a kind of teacher learning
