Given the strict guideline and significant innovation from the Laos Government, there are certain limitations in teacher training in Laos. This paper focuses on selected internationally published works on training teaching skills for prospective teachers (pre-service teachers) with document analysis method on articles and books of authors outside Laos. Subsequently, some recommendations to help innovate the pre-service teacher training process in Laos would be proposed in order to contribute to the development of teachers’ pedagogical competencies. It is suggested that the time allowance for pedagogical practice in high schools with the guidance of expert teachers, possibly through lesson planning and micro-teaching be increased. It is also necessary to pay more attention to equip teacher trainees with skills in using information technology and software in teaching (in particular pre-service mathematics teachers).

The research was designed as a case study from qualitative research designs. The study group consists of 36 female and 9 male, aged between 21 and 25, totally of 45 pre-service teachers; 16 female and 30 male, aged between 30 and 51, totally of 46 practice teachers; 4 female and 7 male, aged between 30 and 51, totally of 11 faculty members. The data was collected in writing with separate forms for pre-service teachers, practice teachers, and faculty members. The data was analyzed by thematic analysis. The results of the research suggest that the existing operation regarding the university-school collaboration is insufficient and those pre-service teachers have the expectation to increase the practice courses in terms of number and duration. It is thought that the interaction between the university and the school should be improved in all aspects.

Although play exemplifies one of the highest forms of experiential learning and can foster creativity and innovation in adults, it is less frequently used explicitly in adult training. This short article explores a play-based approach to enhance teachers’ confidence in using play-based pedagogy through a case study on the Continuum of Teacher Training (COTT), Right To Play International’s in-service teacher training programme. The CoTT is a 21-day programme, which is contextualized and delivered in 16 countries. It integrates play-based learning methods into teaching practice while aligning with local curriculum and infusing academic content with social-emotional skills development. The article concludes with preliminary insights on the impact of the model on children’s social-emotional learning and academic achievement and argues for the critical importance of play for adults to support intergenerational relationships and quality play-based approaches.

Este artículo analiza cómo un futuro profesor de italiano como lengua extranjera gestiona episodios interactivos en que los alumnos se comportan de manera contraria a las obligaciones impuestas por el profesor, de-ritualizan el escenario educativo, y reivindican su rol como “yo” sujeto por encima del rol de “yo” estudiante. El marco teórico que sustenta el presente trabajo está orientado en la pedagogía de la interacción y utiliza el análisis de las interacciones que tienen lugar en el aula como una estrategia de formación profesional. Las reflexiones que se desprenden de este estudio de caso muestran que la observación de estos episodios puede ser un instrumento válido para reflexionar sobre la actividad didáctica y servir como input para la formación del profesorado. Emerge la necesidad de proponer actividades de aprendizaje que planteen situaciones comunicativas significativas estrechamente relacionadas con los objetivos de aprendizaje y que tengan en cuenta las necesidades de los estudiantes. Además, el análisis a posteriori de las interacciones ha permitido al docente reflexionar sobre sus prácticas y volverse más consciente de ellas.

This essay describes an introductory theology course that appears to support ecological conversion. Ecological conversion is a term from Catholic Social Teaching popularized by Pope Francis in Laudato Si’; it indicates a transformation that results in ecological spirituality. The author, a Protestant theology professor at a Catholic university, makes a brief case for ecological conversion in the university and offers four reasons for the course’s impact: 1) a case study on consumerism, 2) cultivation of attentiveness, 3) a transformative pedagogy, and 4) a holistic approach. The author describes the units of the course, which are adapted from Richard Osmer’s practical theological reflection cycle, operationalized as a transformative pedagogy. The author shows how the course units track with a conversion sequence outlined by Lewis Rambo while calling for student agency and appropriation, thus supporting ecological conversion. The author details teaching practice and student engagement.
