Key issues on Chilean teacher education from the perspective of teachers and administrators
Abstract
Teacher education in Chile and the issues that intersect it are nowadays in the public debate of the Chilean society. This study aims at analyze key issues on teacher education- research, innovation, continuous education, university-school relationship, and management- from the perspective of academics, school-teachers and administrators. The study was conducted on 222 participants from Chilean universities and schools in the context of a non-experimental research design of cross-sectional and descriptive nature. The surveys and semi-structured interviews results show that it is necessary to strengthen the relationship between schools and universities, train teachers that achieve effective performances in the current socio-educational contexts and create the conditions for teachers to do research of their own pedagogical practices.
