The study aims to explore literary text-talk in higher education and how some students’ reception of a poem is influenced by their interaction with each other. A particular focus is on whether and how the students use a set of literary conceptual tools when they talk about the poem. The study also illuminates factors that prompt the students perform close readings of the text. The data comes from four recorded and transcribed text-talks, where the students from different teacher training programs in Sweden, Denmark and Norway talk about a poem. These text-talks have been analysed through a thematic analysis. The results show that the students start by focusing on details and try to interpret the vocabulary rather than trying to understand the poem in its entirety. Initially, they also perform close readings and then continue with more extra-textual interpretations. However, because of the interactive nature of the text-talk, the students keep returning to the text. All the four groups use quite a few literary concepts, but they hesitate about the meaning and the use of these concepts. The results further show that the students help each other achieve a deeper understanding of the poem, and the talk itself has an impact on their reception of the poem.

The purpose of the chapter is to show to what extent university-based teacher training programs reflect the new educational standards required by the reform applied to the Romanian higher education system. Specifically, it attempts to analyze the relevance of the curriculum that forms the basis of the language teachers' preparation focusing on its content, structure, and educational aims and purposes. It also tries to highlight the degree to which such programs meet not only learners' needs but also the ones of today's society. Last but not least, the study aims to identify what elements resulted from the Romanian educational reform could be useful for the researchers interested in the field of initial language teacher training.

A survey of itinerant teachers in Texas found that, despite the numerous shortcomings of the job, the respondents believed there were many advantages. The respondents further identified the much needed ability to adjust to change, to put things in perspective, to modify their expectations, and to exercise a healthy sense of humor. This article details these shortcomings and advantages, suggests strategies for overcoming obstacles, and discusses the implications of the findings for administrators of schools and personnel of teacher-training programs.

The findings from a survey of public school programs for behaviorally disordered children are presented suggesting that a majority considered their theoretical focus to be behavioral. If a majority of university teacher-training programs in behavior disorder also consider their primary theoretical focus to be behavioral as previous research suggested, then the two would appear to complement each other. Another portion of the survey, however, indicated that the pragmatic approaches to treatment found in public school behavior disorders programs cover techniques reflecting a wide variety of theoretical models. Consequently, there exists a mismatch which prevents maximum effectiveness in both teacher training and service delivery for behaviorally disordered children. It was concluded that university teacher training programs should reflect a more eclectic stance by carefully synthesizing assorted theoretical components into a composite which meets the diverse pragmatic demands of public school programs for behaviorally disordered children.1
