<div class="page" title="Page 137"><div class="layoutArea"><div class="column"><p><span>Th</span><span>is article's aim is to describe some of the sources of the European debate over the third cycle studies in teacher education in Europe. </span><span>Th</span><span>en it will introduce the international Project </span><span>ED</span><span>i</span><span>TE </span><span>as one of the collaborative initiatives concerning the European scienti</span><span>fi</span><span>c proposal of the teachers' lifelong learning development. Next, some good practices of promoting the doctoral research based teacher education on national levels will be presented. Finally, in the article, there will be revealed selected </span><span>fi</span><span>ndings of the </span><span>ED</span><span>i</span><span>TE </span><span>team that are focused on the current needs in teacher education that have been pointed by di</span><span>ff</span><span>erent stakeholders of </span><span>fi</span><span>ve European countries represented by the project consortium, while interviewing them in </span><span>2013 </span><span>y. </span><span>Th</span><span>e main goal of this article is to involve the stakeholders in a thought provoking debate for future roles of teachers in Europe, but not through looking for a 'standardized teacher model' or to create a 'European super teacher', but to see the dilemmas that should be shared while questioning 'What makes a teacher European?,' as Michael Schratz underlines, in a diversity of national identities and in the face of challenges of </span><span>21</span><span>st century.</span></p></div></div></div>
