Abstract

This article reports that the Editorial Board of the journal "Education for Teaching" welcome the opportunity to explain the policy of the journal. Journals concerned with teacher-training, or sponsored by teacher-training institutions, have had a checkered career in the U.S. "The Journal of Experimental Pedagogy," for example, which was sponsored by the Training College Association, published many distinguished papers but eventually disappeared. When the system for training teachers was reorganized after the war the new Association of Teachers in Colleges and Departments of Education (ATCDE) published "The Bulletin of Education," a miscellany of articles on training, papers on other aspects of education, reviews, and Association news. It was decided that the ATCDE journal should concern itself primarily with the problems of teacher-training and that the title should consequently be changed to "Education for Teaching," which also reflects the general acceptance of the broader aim implied by the word education as opposed to training for teachers.
