Abstract "This volume offers cross-national analysis of teacher education programs designed to prepare teachers for work in Middle-level schools. The book showcases fifteen detailed case studies of courses at institutions across North America, Europe, Asia, and Africa - including form countries currently underrepresented in middle level literature - which provide detailed information on programming whilst foregrounding the political, social, and cultural factors which have influenced priorities within teacher education. Underpinning the book is a comparative case study (CCS) framework, used to identify divergences and commonalities within and across nations whereby factors such as globalization, policy, and socio-cultural views of teaching and adolescence are explored as determinants of the nature, success, and challenges of Middle-level teacher preparation. This text will benefit scholars, academics, and students in the fields of Middle- level education, teacher education, and international and comparative education. Those involved with educational policy and politics, and well as teacher training and the sociology of education more broadly will also benefit from this volume. Cheryl R. Ellerbrock is Associate Professor of Middle Grades and General Secondary Education at the University of South Florida, USA. Katherine M. Main is Associate Professor at Griffith University, Australia"-- Provided by publisher.
