Journal of Teacher Education (JTE) turns 75 in 2025

JTE Editorial Team

In January 2021, AACTE named Texas A&M University’s College of Education and Human Development as the incoming editorial host of the Journal of Teacher Education. The journal is led by two coeditors – Cheryl Craig and Valerie Hill-Jackson. Punya Mishra (Arizona State University) serves as the current Editor in Residence, preceded by Lin A Goodwin (2023), Marilyn Cochran-Smith (2022) and Gloria Ladson-Billings (2021). The team is supported by:

The team is supported by:

  • Cheryl Craig, Co-Editor
  • Valerie Hill-Jackson, Co-Editor
  • Punya Mishra, Editor in Residence
  • John Williams III, Managing Editor
  • Courtney Baker, Associate Editor
  • Heidi Hallman, Associate Editor
  • Andrew Kwok, Associate Editor
  • Rafael Lara-Alecio, Associate Editor
  • Bugrahan Yalvac, Associate Editor
  • Diane Yendol-Hoppey, Associate Editor
  • Rita Kohli, Assistant Editor
  • Ambyr Rios, Assistant Editor

The editors aim to achieve a strategic balance among the areas of preservice and in-service teacher education practice, policy, and research, bringing those areas to bear on one another in challenging and productive ways. They offer a forum for diverse work of teacher education researchers (university and non-university based), teacher education practitioners (e.g., university, state, district, community college), and policy makers at all levels. Linking research and practice is paramount in their vision for the JTE.

The mission of the Journal of Teacher Education, the flagship journal of AACTE, is to serve as a research forum for a diverse group of scholars who are invested in the preparation and continued support of teachers and who can have a significant voice in discussions and decision-making around issues of teacher education. One of the fundamental goals of the journal is the use of evidence from rigorous investigation to identify and address the increasingly complex issues confronting teacher education at the national and global levels. These issues include but are not limited to preparing teachers to effectively address the needs of marginalized youth, their families and communities; program design and impact; selection, recruitment, and retention of teachers from underrepresented groups; local and national policy; accountability; and routes to certification.

JTE does not publish book reviews, program evaluations, or articles solely describing programs, program components, courses, or personal experiences.
