Produktbeschreibung
This book presents an alternative way of perceiving
both formal schooling and teacher education. It
challenges the educational community to examine the
current practice of education and suggests a
transforming alternative. Using the methodology and
writing style of auto ethnography, the author has
investigated an internship, in which interns were
given room to negotiate their role, make mistakes,
form relationships, and come to know the work of
teachers. They were encouraged to become thinkers and
were nurtured in their state of becoming by
mentors. As a result of this study a new model of
teacher education, known as The Transformism
model ,is suggested. This involves the evolution of
student teachers from a me view perception to a worldview perception. This model is not about
training people to be teachers but is about the
education of teachers through the adoption of adult
learning and the incorporation of Choice Theory . A
new form of educational politics and practice is
proposed where people come together in community;
share their beliefs and knowledge, their likes and
dislikes, their differences and their similarities in
openness and with hope for a better world.
