Global Teachers Change Paradigms – Practical Paths to New Learning

This article collection consists of ten articles of pedagogical change. Teachers from the global community of Häme University of Applied Sciences share their pedagogical development projects, experiences and considerations of new learning. The articles reflect changing the learning paradigm from teacher-centred to student-centred learning from three perspectives: 1) curriculum development, 2) pedagogical case examples, and 3) building the learning community. To show appreciation for the diversity of voices and choices, the editor of the book offered variety of writing styles and theoretical frameworks. The authors have participated in the international education programs of the School of Professional Teacher Education of HAMK, for instance the Brazilian-Finnish VET Teachers for the Future professional development program (2014–2017) or the International Professional Teacher Education of the School of Professional Teacher Education (IPTE, 2016–2017) at HAMK
