Rethinking the Development of Teacher Education: Transformation and Integration of Research, Policy, and Practice

師資培育良窳，攸關教師素質，而教師直接影響學生學習成就、態度和行為，因而師資培育在教育發展中扮演著重要的角色。就師資培育本質而言，具有濃厚的實務導向學習，為深化師資培育成效，必須有理論依據和研究支持。臺灣師資培育具有悠久的歷史，培育不少師資投入中、小學教育行列，但隨著師資培育多元化政策之後，師資素質與數量產生不少問題，值得加以重視。本文旨在以研究、政策與實務的轉化及整合的論點重思師資培育發展。首先，分析師資培育研究、政策與實務之間的問題所在；其次，探討師資培育研究成果對於政策和實務的影響及限制；最後，提出強化師資培育研究、政策與實務的連結性建議，包括加強研究者、政策決定者和實務者之間的對話，增進彼此溝通與共識。

Teacher education affects the quality of teachers’ instruction, which in turn affects student academic achievements, attitudes, and behaviors. Teacher education plays a critical role in the development of an educational system. Strong practice-based learning is central to teacher education. To enhance the effectiveness of teacher education, a theoretical basis should be established through research. Taiwan’s system of teacher education has been developed over many years, and it has nurtured numerous teachers who have proceeded to work in primary and secondary schools. However, after the implementation of the diversification of the teacher education policy in 1994, numerous problems emerged related to the quality and quantity of teachers, and these concerns deserve attention. The purpose of this study is to rethink the development of teacher education and to propose arguments for the transformation and integration of research, policy, and practice. First, this paper analyzes the problems in teacher education as related to research, policy, and practice. Second, the influences and limitations of teacher education research on policy and practice are discussed. Finally, the paper provides seven suggestions for the improvement of teacher education, specifically with regard to increasing the links between related research, policies, and practices. For example, the relevant dialogues among researchers, policy-makers, and practitioners should be strengthened, and communication and consensus should be enhanced.
