Transforming Teacher Preparation Through Identity, Development, and Effective Technologies

Denise LaVoie Sargent

In the landscape of global education, there is a dire shortage of teachers, exacerbated by declining enrollment rates and a mass exodus of educators, particularly in urban settings. UNESCO's revelation that millions of teachers are needed by 2030 underscores the critical gaps in our ability to provide quality education. As the education sector grapples with these challenges, Transforming Teacher Preparation Through Identity, Development, and Effective Technologies , offers valuable solutions. This compilation responds to the pressing need for a paradigm shift in teacher preparation, offering insights, recommendations, and diverse perspectives from experts worldwide to address the current crisis and shape the future of education. Teacher shortages and diminishing enrollment rates, coupled with the departure of educators, pose a significant threat to the quality of education globally. Urban areas, in particular, witness a disproportionate exodus of educators, creating disparities that impact the most vulnerable students. The COVID-19 pandemic has further emphasized the need for innovative, technology-driven solutions in teacher preparation. As schools deal with these issues, the imperative is to not only reflect on the current state of teacher preparation but also to set forth recommendations that will transform the field, ensuring a robust and resilient education system for the years to come.

Digital Transformation for Improved Industry and Supply Chain Performance

Muhammad Rahies Khan

In the rapidly evolving landscape of Industry 4.0, integrating digital technologies into supply chain management (SCM) presents opportunities and challenges. While Industry 4.0 promises increased efficiency, productivity, and competitiveness, its impact on sustainability within SCM remains a pressing concern.

It addresses the urgent need for firms to undergo digital transformation to achieve sustainable performance.
