Teacher Education through Active Engagement (eBook, ePUB)

Raising the professional voice
Redaktion: Beckett, Lori

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book addresses a contemporary issue: the ways in which teaching and teacher education are articulated by politicians, civil servants, business leaders and educational entrepreneurs intent on profit-making from teaching and teacher education in the current global neo-liberal policy context. Each contributor in the book challenges this conceptualization and demonstrates necessary intellectual work to wrest back professional control.
