Teacher continuing education after employment, i.e., teacher training, differs from pre-service teacher training. Modern teacher training theory largely requires that practical activities be organized according to the principles and methods of adult education. Examining the original methods and practices of teacher training reveals their shortcomings. Therefore, during the teacher training process, it is essential to fully recognize the status and role of trainees. Only by fully mobilizing their learning enthusiasm can the training achieve the desired results. This is also the fundamental stance behind writing this book.
