4.3. How do teachers develop as citizenship education
professionals?
This study also aimed to find out how this kind of professionalism
for teaching CE could be developed. This knowledge might be
useful to support pre- and in-service teachers in order to
strengthen their competences in teaching CE. The fact that teachers
consider the four dimensions of professionalism as a conditio sine
qua non for teaching CE made us even more curious about how this
professionalism is obtained and whether they have been prepared
during their education to teach CE.
