Teacher Learning and Power in the Knowledge Society: The Knowledge Economy and Education, cartea 5
Rosemary Clark, D. W. Livingstone, Harry Smalleren Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 dec 2011
Drawing on unique large-scale national surveys of working conditions and learning practices in Canada, the book compares teachers with doctors and lawyers, nurses, engineers and computer programmers, as well as other professionals. The class positions of professionals (self-employed, employers, managers or employees) and their different collective bargaining and organizational decision-making powers are found to have significant effects on their formal learning and professional development (PD). Teachers’ learning varies according to their professionally-based negotiating and school-based decision-making powers.
Two further national surveys of thousands of Canadian classroom teachers as well as more in-depth case studies offer more insight into the array of teachers’ formal and informal learning activities. Analyses of regular full-time teachers, occasional teachers and new teachers probe their different learning patterns. The international literature on teacher professional development and related government policies is reviewed and major barriers to job-embedded, ongoing professional learning are identified.
Promising alternative forms of integrating teachers’ work and their professional learning are illustrated. Teacher empowerment appears to be an effective means to ensure more integrated professional learning as well as to aid fuller realization of knowledge societies and knowledge economies.

Recenzii
“This book provides a deep understanding of Canadian teachers’ learning experiences and the Canadian schooling system. Throughout there are continuous comparisons with other countries’ educational systems. As such, the book provides an international perspective on teachers’ learning and effectively encourages readers to consider the authors’ findings in relation to the experiences of teachers world-wide.” — in: International Journal of Lifelong Education 32(6)
