Abstract

The quality of a country's educators is crucial to the progress of that country's citizens.

As a result of developments in pedagogy, psychology, philosophy, sociology, and globalization, today's educators face a more complex and demanding set of demands than ever before.

There is a pressing need in the present day to evaluate, investigate, reform, rethink, and refocus efforts in the area of teacher education. Efforts to enhance the training of educators must be made on three fronts.
