    First Published in 1971, The Future of Teacher Education is intended as a contribution to the debate about future developments in teacher education. Criticism of teacher education is no new thing, but it has certainly risen to a crescendo, culminating in demands from various quarters for some kind of national enquiry. This book discusses topics like broader role for colleges of education; objectives and structure of the college curriculum; study of education in colleges; main subject courses; organization and supervision of school practice; alternative forms of training within the university; and in- service education for teachers. This is a must read for scholars and researchers of education.
