Welcome to the Teacher Education Space!

Here you will find resources to help you as you plan and deliver teacher education programmes and courses as well as people involved with teacher education in Africa.

Please note: Materials for the Early Childhood/Foundation Studies are still being developed. We invite you to join us in developing this site, or to be in touch with your questions and comments! Contact us.

How have the resources been selected and organized?

This space is organized according to a particular Framework for Teacher Education Programmes which makes explicit its underpinning beliefs and assumptions about what constitutes worthwhile and effective programmes of teacher education. To begin with, we have selected the following key themes.

Each theme has a convenor, who is responsible for identifying relevant resources, research, as well as sites and projects of interest.

Access to eBooks

In addition to the OER teacher education resources on this space, we aim to make available as e-books 20 to 40 Teacher Education Textbook titles that are in common use. This will be done under the auspices of the International Association for Digital Publications (IADP). Discounts of between 45% and 80% are possible for books made available electronically.
