Terri Seddon is Professor of Education at La Trobe University, Melbourne. She works in the tradition of comparative historical sociologies of education and has published in the fields of education policy and governance and adult and workplace learning. In this project on teacher education, she is exploring the effects of colliding professional points of view in partnership work. Her aim is to see how these points of view unfold through complex, overlapping and intersectional spatialities and temporalities of education and what they mean for the situated learning and professionalisation of educators.Alex Kostogriz is Professor in Languages and TESOL Education at the Faculty of Education, Monash University. He has previously held leadership positions at Deakin University and Australian Catholic University. He has published widely on the impact of neoliberal reforms on education and teacher education, in particular. Alex’s current research projects focus on the professional practice and ethics of language teachers, teacher education and experiences of beginning teachers.Joanna Barbousas is Dean of Education, La Trobe University, and former President of the Victorian Council of Deans of Education and former executive of the Australian Council of Deans. She brings a frontline policy perspective to this project on initial teacher education but also interrogates that practice-focused way of seeing professional practice through theories of visuality. Her research orientation historicises teacher education and contextualises its policy, practice with reference to the strategic opportunities that emerge with understandings of the temporal relations between past–present–future.
