Abstract
Professional practice knowledge is an intriguing concept. ‘Practice’ is a controversial phenomenon. Different traditions, processes and agents are involved in forming practice in teacher education. Different educational arrangements for practicum learning are formed by different historical, political and organisational processes in different national settings. This is a book about practicum. Empirical studies have been carried out in Australia, Canada, Sweden, China, Norway, Denmark, Finland and the Netherlands.
