A SIGNATURE EXCHANGE FORMAT
Problems of Practice, live

A guest brings a real dilemma from their teacher education work, and works through it with another teacher educator or a small panel. No tidy answers. Just careful thinking you can hear.

Bring a dilemma
You'll appear on camera or audio as yourself. Students, colleagues, and institutions in your dilemma don't need to be named.

Worth Your Time

Good work already exists elsewhere. We point to it, and tell you why it's worth your time.

1
Why it's worth your time
What sets it apart from everything else on the topic.
2
Who it's for
Mentors, supervisors, doctoral students, program leaders.
3
What it helps you think about
The question it opens up for your practice.

Related on the Exchange
Stories, Tools, and Shelf pieces that continue it.
