Abstract

The purpose of this article is to explore the studies and research that have
dealt with teacher training as a basis for student learning development. In
the course of this study, we try to outline a profile of teacher quality and the
effectiveness of teaching that relies on the studies carried out in the field of
evidence-based education. The result of the studies is a quality of teaching
that focuses on the effectiveness of teaching practices and procedures implemented
in class and on designs rely on the findings and evidence of scientific
research as a theoretical basis. The turning point in this field is constituted
by teacher training and direct involvement of teachers in training
courses which implicate a new form of collaboration between research
bodies and institutions: the design of collaborative co-construction paths
that can synergically conjugate the objects of the community of research
and the needs of the community of practice.
