Abstract

A comparative analysis between teacher education in Denmark and the USA reveals how teacher trainings programmes, socio-economic background and cultural contexts interact. The main conclusion of the chapter is that the interplay of diversity and identity emphases the limitations of teacher education aiming at the creation of a standardized professional identity and the effort to resocialise teacher education students into standardized professionals may have serious consequences both for the students themselves and in the long term for schooling as well.
