During this uncertain time, teacher education has never been more needed for West-East dialogues and Reciprocal Learning. Xu and Connelly’s concept of reciprocal learning aims to harmonize the West-East dichotomy and foster appreciation in education and understanding of each other’s culture and history. This book focuses on the field work done by the Teacher Education Research Team with chapter contributors from Canadian and Chinese professors, graduate students and pre-service teachers who have been deeply engaged in the RLP. Following Xu and Connelly’s conceptual framework of “Reciprocal Learning as Collaborative Partnership, ” the book begins with knowing the Teacher Education RLP followed by doing the West-East reciprocal learning through the program. It concludes with a discussion of the envisioned future of the RLP and commentaries from distinguished scholars in teacher education, one from the West and the other from the East.
