Description
This book presents the voices of a very diverse group of practising teacher educators as they develop their professional thinking and practice across a wide range of contexts and settings through practitioner research and inquiry. It explores and extends our understanding of who teacher educators are, and what they see as the most significant theoretical insights that inform their work.
It goes on to show how they have used particular strategies to work with learner teachers and how they continue to grapple with conceptual, policy and practical issues in their day-to-day work. These everyday challenges and methods include stimulated recall, observation and feedback, and teacher agency. In their closing chapters, internationally recognised experts Viv Ellis and Maria Assunção Flores distil the most important and valuable insights from these case studies, making this an ideal resource for early career teacher educators in all settings.
