Abstract

The idea for this special issue of TEAN developed from the international conference ‘At the Crossroads: New Directions in Teacher Education’, held at Canterbury Christ Church University in July 2012, which brought together over 200 scholars from 16 countries. It was striking that a sizeable number of papers focussed on specific methodologies used in researching teacher education,
representing a growing interest in this area. The six articles published here, originally presented at the conference, represent just some of the different and innovative methodological approaches being used in current studies. The special issue will be of particular interest to teacher educators working on research in the field. It will also be of relevance to anyone with an interest in research
methodologies and approaches to research into professional learning and development.
