    Globalization and Diversity: What does it mean for Teacher Education in Canada?
    (Canadian Association for Teacher Education (CATE), 2019) Mueller, Julie; Nickel, Jodi
    Teacher education researchers from across Canada considered the knowledge, skills, and values that prepare teachers to teach in an increasingly diverse and complex world. More recently, Friesen (2018) called for teacher education programs to “take a serious look to determine how these shifts are reflected within their programs” (p.3). This volume responds to Dr. Friesen’s call with a variety of research studies and theoretical debates aimed at identifying and evaluating approaches to globalization and diversity in Canadian teacher education.

    Preparing Teachers as Curriculum Designers
    (Canadian Association for Teacher Education (CATE), 2021) Nickel, Jodi; Jacobsen, Michele
    This volume is the product of the collaboration of participants at the Tenth Working Conference of the Canadian Association for Teacher Education that was held at Wilfrid Laurier University from October 24–26, 2019. The impetus for the working conference theme, Preparing Teachers as Curriculum Designers, emerged initially from the Teaching Effectiveness Framework (Friesen, 2009). This volume examines a variety of ways in which Canadian teacher educators are preparing teachers as curriculum designers. Chapters are organized according to three key areas: Designing Teacher Education Programs, Collaborative Professional Learning for Teacher Designers, and Designing in the Disciplines. The working conference dialogue and this publication aim to enhance and extend communication, collaboration, and critical analysis among Canadian teacher educators; it also seeks to contribute to research and practice that will inspire teachers and teacher educators to design learning that “engages students intellectually and academically ...[and that] is worthy of their time and attention, is personally relevant, and deeply connected to the world in which they live” (Friesen, 2009, p. 4).
