Book Field Experiences in Teacher Education from Student to Teacher

Download or read book Field Experiences in Teacher Education from Student to Teacher written by D. John McIntyre and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive analysis of literature on field experiences for the preservice teacher is divided into sections which focus on the: (1) influences of field experiences on the attitudes and behavior of preservice teachers; (2) roles of university student teacher supervisors and cooperating teachers; (3) structure of field experience programs and models; (4) evaluation of student teacher performance during field experience; and (5) assessment of the success of field experiences. A summary section includes the conclusion that field experience in teacher education is threatened by "the lack of commitment by higher education, the low status of clinical faculty, the lack of objective evaluation criteria, the loss of control to teacher unions and state legislatures, and the lack of relationship between field and campus study." In addition to 11 recommendations for improving field programs, descriptions of 17 exemplary field experience programs in the United States and Canada are appended, along with references. (JD)

Book Expanding Underrepresented Minority Participation

Download or read book Expanding Underrepresented Minority Participation written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2011-07-29 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In order for the United States to maintain the global leadership and competitiveness in science and technology that are critical to achieving national goals, we must invest in research, encourage innovation, and grow a strong and talented science and technology workforce. Expanding Underrepresented Minority Participation explores the role of diversity in the science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) workforce and its value in keeping America innovative and competitive. According to the book, the U.S. labor market is projected to grow faster in science and engineering than in any other sector in the coming years, making minority participation in STEM education at all levels a national priority. Expanding Underrepresented Minority Participation analyzes the rate of change and the challenges the nation currently faces in developing a strong and diverse workforce. Although minorities are the fastest growing segment of the population, they are underrepresented in the fields of science and engineering. Historically, there has been a strong connection between increasing educational attainment in the United States and the growth in and global leadership of the economy. Expanding Underrepresented Minority Participation suggests that the federal government, industry, and post-secondary institutions work collaboratively with K-12 schools and school systems to increase minority access to and demand for post-secondary STEM education and technical training. The book also identifies best practices and offers a comprehensive road map for increasing involvement of underrepresented minorities and improving the quality of their education. It offers recommendations that focus on academic and social support, institutional roles, teacher preparation, affordability and program development.

Book Educators Learning to Be Socially Just Through Critical Field Experiences  CPSX

Download or read book Educators Learning to Be Socially Just Through Critical Field Experiences CPSX written by Elizabeth Hendrix and published by Learning Solutions. This book was released on 2009-12-29 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2007-2008, Mike Flowers and I taught EDU 202/203 and EDU 308 together at Missouri Western State University, and with EDU 203, there was a field-based component consisting mainly of observations in schools. We wanted to find a good field experiences book for our students’ observations at the elementary, middle, and high school levels focusing on social justice and the “isms” in the field of education because we were concerned about serious issues—often ignored—in schools such as racism with the students in “Jena 6” and heterosexism with the Columbine students. We wanted our students to learn how to handle the “isms” appropriately and how to address serious problems as teacher leaders before the problems erupted on a larger, more dangerous scale, and we wanted some curriculum materials and observation activities to guide their thoughts and actions as pre-service teachers and later on as teachers in the schools. However, we quickly discovered there were no field or lab books to help our students watch for the “isms” and develop strategies for being socially just educators in the field with activities for the elementary, middle, and high school levels. The closest field experience book, that we could find, was Learning to Teach: A Critical Approach to Field Based Experiences by Natalie G. Adams, Christine M. Shea, Delores D. Liston, Bryan Deever (2006). Although we like this book, it does not address the three different school levels for activities which our students needed, and it did not address the “isms” at the cultural, institutional, and individual levels which we desired our students to understand. After we discovered the hole in the area, we became interested in writing this book, so our students could use it as well as anyone else who may be experiencing a field clinical and who might be interested in developing strategies for social justice. Our ultimate goal and hope is to have more socially just and socially aware educators in the field, so injustices are dealt with in the classrooms. Also, we hope all students are taught whole class strategies about the “isms,” so there are fewer and fewer incidents of injustice in the schools for teachers to encounter. ~ Elizabeth Hendrix Reference Adams, N., Shea, C., Liston, D., & Deever, B.

Book Portrait of a Moral Agent Teacher

Download or read book Portrait of a Moral Agent Teacher written by Gillian R. Rosenberg and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-06-05 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teaching morally and teaching morality are understood as mutually dependent processes necessary for providing moral education, or the communication of messages and lessons on what is right, good and virtuous in a student’s character. This comprehensive and contextualized volume offers anecdotes and experiences on how an elementary schoolteacher envisions, enacts, and reflects on the ethical teaching and learning of her students. By employing a personally developed form of moral education that is not defined by any particular philosophical or theoretical orientation, this volume relates that classroom-based moral education can, therefore, be conceived of and promoted as moral agency. Accentuated by the teacher’s voice to offer the experience of being in the classroom, this volume enables others to transfer relevant practices to their own teaching contexts.
