This book explores critical qualitative research in social education, focusing on power, privilege, and social justice. It covers various topics, including the role of relationships, collaborative autoethnography, critical historical thinking, and transforming social studies classrooms.
This book revolves around curriculum making, reciprocal learning, and the best-loved self. It draws on extensive school-based studies conducted with teachers in the United States, China, and Canada, and weaves in experiences from other cross-national projects, keynote addresses, archival research, and editorial work. The elucidation of the ‘best-loved self’ drives home the point that teachers are more than the subject matter they teach: they are students’ role models and allies. Curriculum making and reciprocal learning relationships enrich teachers’ and students’ being and becoming as they live curriculum alongside one another—with the goal of more satisfying lives held firmly in view.
The ISATT 40th Anniversary Yearbook, presented over three volumes, celebrates the contributions of ISATT members over time and offers current scholarly research to inform current and future teacher education and teaching.
International Research on the Impact of Accountability Systems: Teacher Education Yearbook XV presents multiple perspectives from well-known teachers and researchers involved in the creation and maintenance of accountability systems, both nationally and globally. These essays will help readers make well-informed and productive decisions when designing and assessing these kinds of systems. Accountability systems can direct or redirect entire educational systems--supporting and strengthening or limiting and weakening. They are frequently enacted with inadequate knowledge of how effective (or ineffective) the system will be, or of the unintended consequences emanating from them. This yearbook will be a useful resource for educators, policymakers, and community members.
The international collection of essays contained in this volume offer a comprehensive look at how small groups are being employed in the field of education today and the purposes for which they are being used. Where teaching is concerned, readers of this volume come to know how teachers experience professional development in book clubs, Critical Friends Groups, and teacher research groups and how action research has been used by teachers in a particular curriculum reform project. Where teacher education is concerned, readers are afforded an insider view of what is happening in various cohorts and other small group configurations throughout the nation and the world, particularly with respect to diversity. Finally, readers catch a glimpse of what is occurring in higher education and how professors learn to be teacher educators, contributing members of the academy, and collaborative colleagues in their efforts to support and enhance student learning along the educational continuum.
