Abstract
This issue of the Asia-Pacific Journal of Teacher Education highlights the breadth of scholarship associated with teacher education. Given the complexity of the field of educational research, including the diversity of theoretical and methodological ideas/approaches that the field draws upon, this breadth is to be expected. Like the authors of the papers in this journal, we as members of the editorial team, need to continuously reflect on our own research practices. All of us involved in teacher education research need to ask questions about what have become normalized or normative research practices and attempt to push at the boundaries of such practices. In this editorial, we briefly review each of the papers in this issue. Then, we attempt to generate a pause, and space for reflection; to slow down our scholarship, in order to raise some questions that have arisen for us recently as we have engaged in teacher education research.
