“<strong>Teaching</strong> is more complex than setting tests <strong>and</strong>assignments, marking books, <strong>and</strong> telling students whatto do. It is dem<strong>and</strong>ing, complex, dynamic <strong>and</strong> highlydependent on personal relationships <strong>and</strong> professionaljudgement. <strong>Teaching</strong> takes time to master <strong>and</strong> teacherpre-service education can only provide a foundation <strong>for</strong>the myriad of contexts <strong>and</strong> challenges to which teacherscan be exposed. … no two days are the same <strong>and</strong> thereis no certainty of what will eventuate in the next lessonor what one is likely to encounter around the nextcorner of the school.”◦ <strong>Dinham</strong>, S. (2006). ‘<strong>Teaching</strong> <strong>and</strong> Teacher Education: SomeObservations, Reflections <strong>and</strong> Possible Solutions’, ED Ventures, 2,pp. 3-20.14
