Introduction

This publication is focused on teacher education, specifically, contemporary teacher education as it is researched and practiced within the current virtual age. Decades of research have shown that early-career teachers face a number of challenges and hold an increasingly wide set of responsibilities. Teacher educators, therefore, must think carefully about how to prepare early-career teachers for the profession. Additionally, however, the work of teaching and teacher education has become increasingly complex within the context of the current virtual age, including the prominent reality of social media and the significant possibilities of (and sometimes necessities for) online teaching and learning. The possibilities of the virtual age can serve as valuable resources for teachers and teacher educators; however, in order to utilize these resources responsibly and productively, researchers and practitioners of teacher education must better understand the new potentials and pitfalls related to teaching and learning that are present within this virtual age. This publication, therefore, focuses on innovations related to the researching of teachers, teaching, and teacher education as well as innovations in the curriculum and pedagogy of teacher education. The aim of this edited book is to inform and deepen discussions related to how teacher education can address the educational possibilities within this virtual age.

This publication will make a significant contribution to scholarship on teacher education by presenting a variety of evidence-based methods that can be used to develop and improve aspects of teacher education within this virtual age, including the curriculum and pedagogy of online teacher education as well as effective ways to prepare preservice teachers for the realities of online teaching and online learning. This publication will address the specific challenges, resources, and possibilities that exist for teacher educators and early-career teachers as they relate to teaching and learning in virtual, online contexts.

This publication will be useful for all programs of teacher education as well as for scholars of teacher education. This publication will provide practical strategies for the design of the curriculum and pedagogy of teacher education and will also present a variety of research methodologies that can be utilized to research the challenges and productive possibilities related to teacher education within the context of online teaching and online learning. This publication will serve as an especially timely and valuable resource for practicing K-12 educators who are currently working within virtual contexts as well as for teacher education programs that are increasingly preparing aspiring teachers for teaching and learning within the context of virtual classrooms.
