In the pedagogical and glottodidactic literature numerous publications have been devoted to the competences of the teacher, their roles, functions, ways of working with the learner, teaching strategies, teaching styles, class management styles, and finally, models of teacher education. However, it seems that in the vast majority of these publications the authors concentrated on the so-called hard competences, valuing them more than soft skills , and neglecting, or even marginalising, the range and particular components which possibly play a crucial role in the initiation and development of didactic cooperation between the teacher and the learner. At the same time these soft skills are perhaps able to some extent compensate for what is lacking in the range of the teacher hard competences. This article presents the theoretical background and an outline of a research project concerning FL teacher competences. The glottodidactic process is treated as a kind of game where the most important for the teacher in this ludic approach is ludic competence. The article presents hypotheses and research questions which are to be verified in a research planned for the coming year.

What are the prevalent understandings of the concept of teachers’ professional competence? What knowledge forms and learning arenas are significant in developing teacher competences for the 21st century? In what ways can transdisciplinary goals of teacher education (such as diversity, research and development (R&D) and digital competence) contribute in forming teachers’ professional competence? This special issue’s contributions address a variety of perspectives on core concepts for understanding the complexity of teachers’ professional competence. They define, question and criticize the prevalent epistemological and ontological understandings within teacher qualification. They include theoretical and empirical papers addressing a variety of perspectives on teacher qualification and teachers’ professional competence, with a particular focus on the role of modes of knowledge, learning arenas and multidisciplinarity as contributors to transdisciplinary goals in teacher qualification. In addition, contributions illustrate dimensions of teachers’ professional competences such as teachers’ diversity competence, teachers’ R&D competence and teachers’ digital competence.

<p class="apa">The roles of teachers and schools are changing, and so are expectations about them. Teachers must educate in progressively multicultural classrooms, coordinate students with particular needs, utilize ICT for teaching viably, engage in evaluation and accountability processes, and involve parents in schools. In such, this study aimed to identify and introduce ideal teacher competences in the Islamic Republic of Iran based on the revolutionary documentations of its education and pedagogical system. To do so, 544 pages of the texts of these documentations were meticulously studied and analyzed by qualitative content analysis using the inductive method in creating categories. Then, 138 items representing ideal teacher competences in the Islamic Republic of Iran were extracted and categorized. The results of the research showed 5 main domains of competences—including knowledge, skill, attitude, action, and ethics—as well as their sub-qualifications and related components. This analysis facilitates codification of special criteria for recruiting efficient and effective personnel; planning, predicting and designing a curriculum based on teacher competences; and attracting the attention of experts and macro curriculum planners of universities responsible for teacher training.</p>

<p><em>Professional pedagogical performance is an important condition for a successful implementation of national education policy. Creative and understanding the evolving process of today – a competent music teacher is competitive both in the domestic employment market and abroad. Music as art is creative in its essence. However, in practice it is often found that reproductive activity often dominates the preparation of music teachers. Being the most creative of arts – music in the course of acquiring the art of playing music loses its inherent creativity. Primarily, the preparation of music teachers is focused on activities based on the quality of learning by heart and remembering. The matter of research is related to raising awareness of productive activity in the improvement of music teacher competency. The objective is to study opportunities for improvement of music teacher competences within productive activity.</em> <em>The research is developed by theoretical and empirical methods involving discussions and a questionnaire.  In order to improve the professional competence of a music teacher via productive activity, a procedural – structural model titled “Improvement of Music Teacher’s Competence via Improvisation” was developed, the utility of which is evaluated on the basis of various specific criteria. An exercise system is also developed and approved. As a result of verifying the model, we assure the utility thereof in the improvement of the professional competence of music teachers. The developed improvisation exercises are useful for practical productive activities.</em></p>

The sample of the study are 223 dissertations including 178 master’s and 45 PhD in total, which are open access in YÖK national dissertation database center and were written between the years 2010-2017. In this study, document analysis method, which is one of the qualitative research methods, was used. As a result of the research, it was concluded that in a total of 39 dissertations, including 36 master’s and 3 PhD, there were no keywords. In the dissertations left, the 102 different keywords were determined. Depending on these different keywords the 13 different subjects in general were determined. These subjects adress the vocabulary, grammar, culture, idioms and proverbs, basic language skills, Common European Framework References for Languages, motivation-anxiety-adaptation, language learning strategies, textbooks, material-play-activity, assessment-evaluation, teacher competences, student autonomy, methods and techniques, Turkish in Turkey and in the world.

The article gives an overview of how the development of a blended e-pedagogy course for Higher Education teachers have used the experiences from many years of international online courses for European BA students. Influenced by the situated-learning perspective, this course employs student-centred teaching and learning methods. Moreover, inspired by the Community of Inquiry, this programme emphasizes the importance of Cognitive, Teaching and Social presence in the Virtual Learning Environment. The students plan their own courses in accordance with the stages of becoming an e-learner. One uses the ecological “Model of Relations between Didactical Categories” as a framework, and the e-pedagogy course is customized to be “hands-on” learning experiences, which promotes the desired e-teacher competences. During the course the students are engaged in discussions and co-operation by using different ICT-collaborations tools. At this time, the course has been held twice, and is available for everyone as an online learning resource under the Creative Commons license (http://www.virclass.net/eped). Evaluations by students have demonstrated that this hands-on training course can help students attain the necessary competences needed to be skilled e-teachers.
