OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

The seminar introduces a book Educating the Teacher Educators: Who, What, How and Why to be published by Bloomsbury in 2027.
The book itself presents the voices of a very diverse group of practising teacher educators, working across a wide range of contexts and settings, as they learn and engage with practitioner research and inquiry to develop their professional thinking and practice on the Masters in Teacher Education and beyond. The seminar will explore the origins of the book, before the authors of four of the (13) chapters go on to present the theories, evidence, key arguments and insights from their particular research studies. It will end by looking at what the book contributes to the field of teacher education and to the education of teacher educators.
