The International School Health Network and our partners are calling for editors, writers, contributors, reviewers and sponsors to develop a series of webinars, wiki-based summaries and other resources that define and describe several topics on teacher education and development for promoting health, safety, equity, social and sustainable development in schools. The development of this series of topics is being guided by a group of experts and practitioners This group of experts and practitioners includes Didier Jourdan (l’Institut universitaire de formation des maîtres d’Auvergne), Patricia Mannix McNamara (University of Limerick) and Helen Butler (Australian Catholic University) As with other topics in this program and in this web site, it is expected that each topic will eventually, over the course of several months, have developed a Glossary termTerm (1-2 paragraphs), an Encyclopedia Entry (1-2 pages), a Handbook Section (10-15 pages with sub pages for case studies andstart a Bibliography or Toolbox that lists web-linked research articles, reports and resources such as educational programs, training tools and policy documents.documents and could start on some Handbook Sections (10-15 pages with sub pages for case studies). The summaries on topics could eventually form part of an e-book that could be prepared from materials in this knowledge exchange program. The following lengthy list of potential topics are relevant to the teacher education and development. (Note: This list of topics is also open for amendment). There are some topics on this list with active links to "rough draft", "first draft" or "first editions" because they had been started or adapted with permission from another project or source. The topics are organized within the outlines we use within this encyclopedia. Where appropriate, we have added links to other summaries in this Encyclopedia that relate to these topics. Just follow the items listed under "Also see". Individuals and organizations interested in becoming a writer, contributor or sponsor for any one or more of these topics should contact dmccall@internationalschoolhealth.org The deadline for responding to this call is open, because the list of topics is lengthy and the topics on the list are open for continued discussion.
