Vincitore premio Siped 2019 The most important action to take for much better student outcomes is to improve the quality of teaching and learning in classroom. Teachers play such a significant role in building the future generation that with no doubt they are at the core of workplace reform. An effective teacher training can help prepare future teachers for the challenge. Even though teacher training may not completely prepare new teachers for every issue they will face, it can still assist them in feeling more confident about many common problems that arise for teachers in their everyday teaching. The primary purpose of this book is to analyse various studies on initial teacher education and to present findings in the form of an annotated bibliography and a literature review of the methods and models to apply for a more efficient teacher training. It aims to provide future teachers and teacher educators with innovative learning and teaching methods, strategies, digital competences and ideas for a better reflective practice, which can lead them to a well-designed initial training and to combine harmoniously theory and practice in their teaching.
