Keynote - From Teaching, to Teaching Teachers, to Teaching Teacher Educators: A Journey in Search of Quality Education for All
Lin Goodwin
Boston College, United States of America
Quality education is a goal most nations would embrace, especially as education is seen as essential to social and economic development and advancement. But it remains an elusive goal, especially when the aim is to ensure universal access to an excellent education. In this talk, Dr. A. Lin Goodwin from Boston College in the U.S., focuses on some steps we might take as an educator community to further progress in our journey towards quality education for all and not just some. She looks at the profession from the three vantage points: teachers, their preparation, and those who teach teachers, using examples gleaned from her own lived experiences to illuminate the key points she will share.
