Winner of the 2019-20 Distinguished Book Award - Midwest Sociological Society
In Lesson Plans, Judson G. Everitt takes readers into the everyday worlds of teacher training, and reveals the complexities and dilemmas teacher candidates confront as they learn how to perform a job that many people assume anybody can do. Using rich qualitative data, Everitt analyzes how people make sense of their prospective jobs as teachers, and how their introduction to this profession is shaped by the institutionalized rules and practices of higher education, K-12 education, and gender. Trained to constantly adapt to various contingencies that routinely arise in schools and classrooms, teacher candidates learn that they must continually try to reconcile the competing expectations of their jobs to meet students’ needs in an era of accountability. Lesson Plans reveals how institutions shape the ways we produce teachers, and how new teachers make sense of the multiple and complicated demands they face in their efforts to educate students.

Recenzii
"An excellent and exciting addition to the field. Lesson Plans makes important contributions to existing work through its treatment of teacher education programs as sites of cultural negotiation between future teachers and the institutional and organizational expectations for their teaching."
"Lesson Plans is a rich and wonderful study, perhaps the most interesting treatise on teachers since Lortie's seminal Schoolteacher."
"A remarkably informative and exceptionally insightful study that is impressively accessible in both organization and presentation, Lesson Plans is a unique and critically important addition both college and university library Teacher Education collections and supplemental studies lists."
"Lesson Plans is a much-needed addition to the body of work on professional socialization, and can be taught both for its topical focus as well as an example of how to use qualitative data to construct arguments that link levels of analysis."
"Everitt’s ethnographic analysis offers a novel look at how teacher candidates respond to accountability standards."
