Becoming a Teacher:
Evidence that responds to new threats
____________________________________
Teachers and the teaching profession are increasingly
coming in for criticism that reflects changing policies
about how to improve quality education for all.
In both rich and poor countries, questions are being asked
about what kind of teacher can improve quality and
strengthen equity.
In this seminar Professor Akyeampong will present new
evidence from UNESCO’s 2013/14 Global Monitoring
Report to address four broad questions that are
increasingly being asked of teacher education and the
teaching profession.
