"Good pal, wise dad and nagging wife"
and other views of teaching practice mentors
pp. 137-149
Abstract
At the University of Helsinki teacher education the network of teaching practice schools has become an important part of teacher education for both educational and societal reasons. The network guarantees a diversity of teaching practice experiences and therefore extensively prepares students to work as professionals. The fact that some municipal schools offer teaching practice is a prime example of how universities, in addition to serving as research and teaching facilities, also influence society.
