Assessment and feedback are central to the question of how teacher educators can enhance and transform teaching and learning. This edited volume details case studies and empirical research presenting alternative innovative designs for assessment and feedback across a range of programmes, mediums and jurisdictions.While the swift and unexpected digital pivot during the pandemic emphasised how teacher education adopted and facilitated online teaching, supervision and practice, there is now a need for increased attention to support alternative approaches. Innovating Assessment and Feedback Design in Teacher Education considers the perspectives and experiences of teachers, educators and students, while also exploring discipline-specific practices and outcomes, professional competencies as well as issues pertaining to quality, equity, inclusion, accountability, academic integrity and success. Carefully chosen international contributors provide cutting-edge research findings and discuss its practical implications covering the development, deployment and evaluation of classroom-based, hybrid and remote approaches. This book elaborates upon the transformative assessment and feedback approaches taken by teacher educators to inform the future landscape of teaching and learning in a digital age.Illustrating key developments in the field, examples of best practice, dialogues integrating the student perspective, worked examples and international perspectives, this key book is an invaluable resource for teacher educators striving to improve their practice.

Teacher education is facing unprecedented challenges: from teacher shortages and shifting policy landscapes, to the rapid expansion of digital learning. This book serves as a continuation of key themes discussed at the 2024 ATEE Annual Conference in Budapest, Teacher Education on the Move, and explores how the field is responding to these challenges. Bringing together international perspectives, it examines how moments of crisis can become catalysts for innovation, renewal, and meaningful transformation in teaching and teacher education.The book comprises ten chapters written by scholars and practitioners working across a wide range of geo-political contexts. It explores key movements within and beyond teacher education: developing alternative pathways to addressing teacher shortages; adopting research-informed approaches to teacher education; embracing reflexivity and improvisation within the role of the teacher; and embedding online teaching and learning longer term. Rather than frame crises solely as obstacles to overcome, the authors instead handle them as pivotal moments for rethinking assumptions, disrupting routines, and exploring new possibilities for teacher education.By gathering diverse voices, topics, and research methodologies, this book offers not just a repository of knowledge, but a dynamic resource for researchers, teacher educators, student teachers, teachers, and educational leaders who seek robust, research-informed insights to inspire their efforts in modernising teaching and teacher education. Ultimately, it aims to support the teacher education community in becoming resilient in adapting to change within the field, as well as actively contributing to positive transformations in wider society.
