Eyvind Elstad; Knut-Andreas Abben Christophersen; Are Turmo – Journal of Teacher Education and Educators, 2024
Increased time-on-task is one of the overall goals for teacher education in both Denmark and Norway.

Zúñiga Vargas, Juan Pablo, Ed. – Online Submission, 2022
Undoubtedly, it is every teacher's life quest to find the best way to teach; there are no universal formulas to accomplish that. A committed teacher is a life-long learner, which shows why being an educator is not an easy career. A teacher is indeed like a candle that lights the students' path as it consumes itself. Such abnegation comes at a high…
