Maintaining a critical eye on the teacher education programs is essential, both to think about their relevance and to advance the development of these programs towards training that contributes to social justice, at the same time that develop within a social justice and equity framework. However, although many of the teacher education programs espouse social justice, his students are not trained in an own atmosphere of this slogan. In the United States, the current debate builds on what is the best vision if the programs that are based on field practices (1.0) or those that focus on technical aspects of training, as well as greater results on standardized tests (2.0). The truth is that none of these visions revives in their practices, essential and inherent values to training in social justice. Therefore, this article makes explicit the need for transformation of teacher education programs.Downloads
