Circle U. TENet

The Teacher Education Network - TENet - aims to highlight and promote high-quality education and research in initial teacher education across Circle U partner universities. This project seeks to raise awareness among CU researchers, teaching staff, administrators, and teacher education students about opportunities for research-driven, interdisciplinary and cross-border collaboration in the area of teacher education. Our commitment is to strengthen the internationalisation of teacher professional development by designing a model course which connects the principle of involving students as co-researchers to practices of international exchange and collaboration in initial teacher education.

The TENet will explore the links with the work done in the four CU Knowledge Hubs, in the platforms of the CU.mil, and the CU.erc links with the tenets and aims of teacher education. The TENet participates in the CU.til and cooperates closely with the CU Open Campus. The Network is open to individual researchers and students as well as to representatives of institutional units in initial teacher education across Circle U.

  • Participating universities: Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, University of Vienna, University of Belgrade, King's College London, UCLouvain, University of Oslo
