In the two decades since then, English teacher education programs have developed in contextually dependent ways that often have been driven by institutional, economic, social and political considerations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe authors provide an overview of their nationwide study of English teacher educators, which was conducted over a four-year period. They analyze the context under which teacher educators currently prepare pre-service English teachers in the US and support teacher educators in other countries to make comparisons to their own unique historical and cultural settings. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe authors also offer a comprehensive evaluation of the content, practices and skills being taught to future teachers of English in university-based teacher preparation programs in the US.  The book draws on evidence from a nationwide questionnaire, case studies of teacher educators in their respective programs, course syllabi and focus group interviews to focus on areas of instruction that resonate with teacher educators in countries where English is the dominant language of communication. These areas include:\u003cbr\u003e- field experiences\u003cbr\u003e- standards and assessment\u003cbr\u003e- teaching literacy to integrate reading and writing\u003cbr\u003e- working with English language learners to address cultural and linguistic diversity\u003cbr\u003e- new technologies in English education\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDonna L.
