| Summary: | The aim of present study is a comparative investigation of two famous philosophers, Henry Giroux and Robert Floden, to develop a model for the philosophy of teacher education. The research method is qualitative with inferential-analytical approach.

Floden also emphasizes the cultivation of a pragmatic teacher who is familiar with theoretical foundations and is an interactive, creative expert, and non-dominant person. From the perspective of the two philosophers, it can be inferred that the ideal teacher is one who believes in reflective interactions and avoidance in the field of education and emphasizes reform in the shadow of accepting "other". Based on the intellectual foundations of these two thinkers, a model has been designed to show the process of training an ideal teacher |
