The proposed model is then interpreted in the context of a universal framework for discussing quality in higher education put forward by Laura Schindler and colleagues in 2015. The comparison shows that Polish conception is highly compatible with the universal model with reference to its four general dimensions: purposefulness, transformativity, accountability and excellence. Yet, important differences can be observed as regards specific indicators of quality. It seems that these asymmetries may be crucial in further developing the concept of quality-oriented</p><p>teacher training in Poland.</p> ER -
