This paper explores questions concerning curriculum collaboration between professional education faculty and liberal arts faculty. To this end, the paper examines three curriculum models currently used by teacher preparation institutions to structure the relationship between professional education and liberal arts course work: Integrated, Collaborative, and Segmented. Each generic model is described and then evaluated in terms of its inherent strengths and weaknesses, and a case example of each is elaborated. The paper proposes interconnectedness and pedagogical relevance as normative criteria for assessing teacher education programs. Under these criteria, the collaborative model seems to be the most efficacious curriculum model for teacher education. © 1991.
