European Journal of Teacher Education

This is a powerful book addressing the complexity of powerful teacher knowledge highly relevant to policy makers, researchers/teacher educators, and teachers.

Kari Smith, Professor, Teacher Education Department, Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), Norway

A book which, with its rich perspectives on a range of subjects and cross-curricular contexts, is sure to be of help to active and future teachers, teachers of teachers and others interested parties. Knowledge and quality of teaching are the key words to meet the challenges of the time.

Pavel Zgaga, Professor of Philosophy of Education, University of Ljubljana, Slovenia

Drawing together an international author team from Australia, Finland, France, Germany, Norway, Sweden and the UK, this book examines how we might democratize and open up access to ‘knowledge of the powerful’ for all. This book moves beyond the narrow knowledge vs skills debate of the 20th century to interrogate the epistemic quality of education in schools, and is a valuable resource for reflecting on the design and implementation of teacher education. Based on a range of national studies by the Knowledge and Quality across School Subjects and Teacher Education network (KOSS), funded by the Swedish Research Council (2019-22), the chapters explore teachers’ powerful professional knowledge and the implications this has for innovation in teacher education, policy and practice in educational settings.
