Abstract
Successful innovation in teacher educa tion depends upon resolving issues regarding four interrelated themes: identity, non-passivity, control, and cur riculum. The authors' examination of the first year and a half of an innovative mas ters-level program explores the specific development ofthese themes. For exam ple, faculty and prospective teachers began to establish an identity with teach ing and teacher education rather than with subject specializations. McCaleb and his colleagues discuss their institu tional progress on the radical changes needed in teacher education.
