Educating the educator

Pre-service teaching institutions must recognize as their primary task to prepare new teachers with the skills and resources necessary to meet the demanding personal and professional challenges of today and tomorrow. Thus, Educating the Educator addresses the recognized needs by helping professionals train future educators in how to deal with a topic that is and will always be important to the field of education: relating to others. The included chapters offer a diverse compilation of topics that ground the future educator in theory and research, yet provide information in a realistic and applied manner that offers a stepping stone for conversation in the pre-service human relations classroom.
