Abstract
This chapter illustrates what can be learned about teacher education through a narrative self-reflection of three academics at various stages in their career (earlycareer, mid-career and experienced teacher educators). The three teacher educators shared a “shock” through their respective involvement in the reconceptualisation and redevelopment of the Bachelor of Education (Primary) core program at their university.
