This research area includes attention to teacher preparation, professional practice and leadership. It draws upon an array of conceptual foci and interdisciplinary approaches to better understand how professional practice is understood and exercised. It also includes various kinds of internationalisation in relation to content areas, and analyses educational issues across all levels – early childhood, schooling, higher education (VET; University) and adult education more broadly.
