Although research on teacher education is a relatively young field, it is also a sprawling field, including both research that is more social science-oriented and empirical and research that is more humanities-oriented and conceptual. Unprecedented international attention to teacher quality over the last 30 years, especially to the ways teachers are prepared and supported, has amplified the conceptual, methodological, and analytical variety and complexity of the field and also introduced new perspectives that have shaped the ways we think about the enterprise of teacher education.  This distinguished lecture will focus on current and future research on, in, and for teacher education by identifying five broad research agendas that are among the most vibrant and important internationally: (1) teacher education, policy, and public discourse; (2) teacher education, equity, diversity, and justice; (3) teacher education, technology, and virtual learning; (4) teacher education, practice, and pedagogy; and, (5) teacher education and agency, autonomy, and inquiry. For each of these broad agendas, the lecture will introduce and conceptualize the topic, identify core questions and issues, and highlight selected examples of both conceptual and empirical research from a number of different countries. The lecture will conclude with consideration of how these agendas are related to each other and to larger issues in education.
