Recenzii
This book is an insightful and highly readable analysis of the work of teacher educators in England, but its value extends far beyond that setting. Combining original studies of teacher educators with trenchant critique of education policy trends in England and elsewhere, this book is a must-read for those who reject the "defend or reform" dichotomy and instead want genuine transformation of teacher education.
This excellent book is a very timely and insightful analysis of some of the consequences - both intended and unintended - arising out of a time of unprecedented change in the teacher education sector.
In this thoughtful volume, Viv Ellis and Jane McNicholl offer a deliberate plan for the transformation of initial teacher education. Transforming Teacher Education represents a vision that neither defends nor reforms, but uncompromisingly takes bold steps towards collaboration and collective creativity, a vision for remaking initial teacher education such that another future for our work is possible-not just in England but elsewhere in the world too.
The politics of teacher education have been destabilised in most countries, often resulting in derisory discussion of both teachers and teacher educators. This book provides a helpful framework to think pro-actively about teacher education as a field, and offers a seriously challenging agenda for transforming that field of practice. It considers the much neglected daily work of teacher educators and their positioning in higher education institutions, and comes up with an important agenda in which public universities and the profession might better work together to develop and change the practices of teacher education. Such a provocative agenda offers the potential for researchers and practitioners in many countries to build both scholarship and practice in ways that invite multilateral international networks to develop.
Written by authors with a deep understanding of developments in teacher education, Transforming Teacher Education is a timely and important book that captures the complexity of the work of teacher educators. Based on their extensive research and offering a transformative agenda, it is an important source for practitioners, managers and policymakers who are dedicated to transform teacher education and improve the work and academic status of all those who work within the field.
This is an important book.The authors offer a rich, complex and detailed approach to an alternative "transforming" perspective, drawing upon a wide range of theory and research which they link to practical outcomes. They have put forward versions of this analysis at conferences in different countries - notably the USA and the UK where the neoliberal alternative to "transformation" has been prominent - but now the publication of the book can provide teachers and scholars with a substantial basis that will enable them to review and build on these constructive ideas in their own work.
