Kenneth M. Zeichner
4.9/5 (12593 ratings)
Description:The Struggle for the Soul of Teacher Education is a much-needed exploration of the unprecedented current controversies and debates over teacher education and professionalism. Set within the context of neo-liberal education reforms across the globe, the book explores how the current struggles over teaching and teacher education in the US came about, as well as reflections on where we should head in the future. Zeichner provides specific examples of work that moves teacher education toward greater congruency between ideals and practices, while outlining the basis for a new form of community-based teacher education, where universities and other program providers, local communities, school districts, and teacher unions share responsibility for the preparation of teachers. Ultimately, Zeichner problematizes an uncritical shift to more practice and clinical experience, and discusses the enduring problems of clinical teacher education needed for this shift to be educative.Readers are sure to gain insight on transforming teacher education so it more adequately addresses the need to prepare teachers capable of providing a high quality education with access to a rich and broad curriculum, and culturally and community responsive teaching for everyone's children.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
