The aim of this study is to introduce the philosophy of teacher education in the main educational works of Richard S. Peters and to find some meaningful implications in his claim about teacher education. Conclusions are as followings. Firstly, researcher described his claims about aims of teacher education based upon his concepts such as 'education', 'educated person' and 'authority'. Fundamentally, the aim of teacher education presupposed in his works is to cultivate educated teachers. To him, educated teachers must have some important qualities: commitment to worthwhile, cognitive perspective, morality of teaching, and actual authority. Secondly, researcher investigated his general view about contents and methods of teacher education. He stressed importance for basic disciplines such as philosophy, psychology, sociology, and history. Especially, he suggested philosophy and philosophy of education as foundational curriculum for teacher education. For he thought that theoretical subjects affects to educational practices such as teaching and counseling. Furthermore, he emphasized the priority of contents and skill for good teaching. And he suggested the corporation of educational specialists and curriculum specialists for enhancing quality of teacher education. Also, he emphasized that university must help university professors and school teachers to corporate each other. Thirdly, researcher found some problems or difficulties in his view of teacher education. For his view seems to me very austere, intellectualistic, and masculine-centered. But his view will be evaluated as some criterion of reflection about our teacher education and direction for changing the contents and methods of teacher education. And his view will throw to us some meaningful light for practices of teacher education in our future.
