Abstract

In this article I present a model for working with teacher-students’ understanding of action and behaviour in classrooms. It presents a model for collegial coaching in reflective teams, which can also be used by teachers to learn about what happens in teaching. The article starts out by addressing current trends across Europe, which influence all of higher education, including teacher education (TE). The article outlines an understanding of teaching as relational and as what happens in the present, here and now. A relational model for thinking teaching is presented through a version of the didactical triangle. I propose three foundational questions for TE: How does TE teach relations to content knowledge to students? How does TE prepare students to become caring teachers?
