    (Unit for Distance Education, University of Pretoria, South Africa, 2009) Olayiwola Olorisade; Kuiper, S.A.; Thomas, H.; Adebayo, T.A; Maiyanga, A.; Aliyu, M.
    A Case Study of curriculum transformation at a college of education provides the lens through which to analyse teacher education in Nigeria. The curriculum at this college has undergone a comprehensive transformation resulting in a college curriculum policy, a new institutional structure in terms of schools and departments as well as a new set of teacher education programmes. The developments have been a collaborative exercise with the Federal teacher education oversight body. Experiences at the college are set to influence a transformation in the overall teacher education programme in Nigeria and thus are likely to result in changes in all State college of education.
