Download or read book Reflective Teacher Education written by Linda Valli and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1992-09-01 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An increasing number of educators are arguing for conceptually sound reflective or inquiry-oriented teacher education programs. The argument is based on the fact that reflective teaching is possible and the belief that teachers should develop habits of consciously informed action. Those who promote reflective teaching argue for teacher empowerment within a self-renewing profession. Reflective Teacher Education offers case studies from seven universities that have organized teacher education programs around the concept of reflection. The cases represent public and private institutions, and alternative and traditional models of teacher preparation. The studies represent efforts to transform the entire professional education component rather than individual courses or isolated strategies. The volume also considers reflection as a conceptual orientation, commenting on its power to inform and improve teacher education, and assessing the implementation of reflection in these specific programs. The six critiques raise intriguing questions about the possibility and desirability of reflective reform efforts by viewing the cases from varying perspectives—development, cognitive, feminist, social reconstructionist, and post-modern.

Jacqueline Ancess describes how teachers in New York City secondary schools increase their own learning while improving student outcomes • Milbrey W. McLaughlin and Joel Zarrow demonstrate how teachers learn to use data to improve their practice and meet educational standards • Lynne Miller presents a case study of a long-lived school, university partnership • Beverly Falk recounts stories of teachers working together to develop performance assessments, to understand their student’s learning, to re-think their curriculum, and much more • Laura Stokes analyzes a school that successfully uses inquiry groups. There are further contributions (including some from novice teachers) by Anna Richert Ershler, Ann Lieberman, Diane Wood, Sarah Warshauer Freedman, and Joseph P. McDonald. These powerful exemplars from practice provide a much-needed overview of what matters and what really works in professional development today.

Download or read book La Professionnalisation des enseignants written by Vincent Lang and published by FeniXX. This book was released on 1999-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La question de la professionnalisation des enseignants a donné lieu à de vives discussions publiques lors de la mise en place des IUFM. Elle renvoie à des significations variées, privilégiant tantôt la technicité du métier, tantôt les stratégies de valorisation d'une image ou d'un statut social. Elle est complexe parce qu'elle ne se comprend que dans une histoire, dans une organisation dont l'environnement a connu des mutations profondes. Acteurs, sens, structure, histoire, société : la professionnalisation ne peut être envisagée de façon unidimensionnelle. L'auteur s'attache d'abord à définir le processus de professionnalisation comme un mode particulier d'articulation de deux logiques, instrumentale et communicationnelle, processus qui conduit à la constitution d'un espace d'autonomie professionnelle, condition d'émergence d'une professionnalité spécifique et de valorisation du statut social. Pour comprendre alors en quoi les formes traditionnelles de l'exercice professionnel peuvent être réputées inadaptées, il faut en analyser la teneur et les changements apparus dans les conditions et les contextes d'exercices, qui mettent en cause les postulats fondant les anciennes pratiques. Interrogeant enfin la consistance du modèle de l'enseignant professionnel, on examine la nouvelle formation initiale des enseignants au travers de plans de formation de différents IUFM : son enjeu essentiel porte, en dernier ressort, sur la définition des identités enseignantes et des référents de la professionnalité.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cet ouvrage raconte le long processus identitaire vécu par une dizaine d'étudiants en formation initiale à l'enseignement sur une période de trois ans. Pour l'auteure, l'entrée dans la carrière enseignante s'effectue bel et bien au début de la formation initiale. Ainsi, la naissance d'une identité professionnelle ne se produit pas soudainement à la fin de la formation initiale lorsque l'étudiant prend ses fonctions dans une école, mais se déroule petit à petit durant plusieurs années. C'est dire, alors, qu'au coeur de l'identité professionnelle enseignante se trouve une personne en apprentissage. Etant engagé dans une démarche de formation, l'étudiant développe progressivement un rapport avec des aspects de l'enseignement qui jusqu'alors l'interpellaient peu : l'école comme institution, les enfants comme élèves, le travail d'enseignement et les responsabilités qu'il comporte, etc. Dans certains travaux réalisés dans des cours à l'université, l'étudiant révèle-t-il des indices de ces rapports? Laisse-t-il des traces témoignant de l'image qu'il a de ces nouvelles réalités et de lui-même? Cette étude propose de saisir ces indices et d'en dégager les particularités. Elle s'adresse à des formateurs préoccupés par la reconnaissance et l'accompagnement du processus identitaire tel qu'il se produit chez l'étudiant durant sa formation.

Download or read book From Expert Student to Novice Professional written by Anna Reid and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-01-04 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Students entering higher education expect their studies to lead them towards some specific form of professional career. But in this age, complex internationalized professions are the main source of work for graduates, so students need to prepare themselves for a future that can be volatile, changeable and challenging. This book shows how students navigate their way through learning and become effective students; it details how to shift the focus of their learning away from the formalism associated with the university situation towards the exigencies of working life. It is in this sense that the book explores how people move from being expert students to novice professionals. This book presents a model of professional learning fashioned out of a decade of research undertaken in countries half a world away from each other—Sweden and Australia. It uses empirical research gathered from students and teachers to show how students negotiate the forms of professional knowledge they encounter as part of their studies and how they integrate their understandings of a future professional world with professional knowledge and learning. It reveals that as students move from seeing themselves as learners, they take on more of a novice professional identity which in turn provides a stronger motivation for their formal studies.

Download or read book Accounting for Culture written by Caroline Andrew and published by University of Ottawa Press. This book was released on 2005-03-30 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many scholars, practitioners, and policy-makers in the cultural sector argue that Canadian cultural policy is at a crossroads: that the environment for cultural policy-making has evolved substantially and that traditional rationales for state intervention no longer apply. The concept of cultural citizenship is a relative newcomer to the cultural policy landscape, and offers a potentially compelling alternative rationale for government intervention in the cultural sector. Likewise, the articulation and use of cultural indicators and of governance concepts are also new arrivals, emerging as potentially powerful tools for policy and program development. Accounting for Culture is a unique collection of essays from leading Canadian and international scholars that critically examines cultural citizenship, cultural indicators, and governance in the context of evolving cultural practices and cultural policy-making. It will be of great interest to scholars of cultural policy, communications, cultural studies, and public administration alike.

This book was released on 2021-02-15 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les enseignants et les enseignantes se forment par le biais de leur formation - initiale ou continue - mais pas seulement. Ce qui se joue « entre les murs » de ce processus est complexe et objet de beaucoup d'attention, mais qu'en est-il des apports extérieurs, de tout ce que les professionnels du savoir apprennent hors des écoles où ils reçoivent et donnent tour à tour un enseignement ? Des recherches conduites au plus près des transactions observables en France, en Belgique, en Suisse et au Québec permettent de comparer les contextes et de renouveler la réflexion sur la forme scolaire et ses évolutions : de leurs apprentissages informels à ce qu'en font leurs études, quel rôle la formation buissonnière des enseignant.es joue-t-elle dans leur appropriation de leur métier et sa professionnalisation ?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soumises à de multiples pressions et souvent en tension entre des demandes, attentes ou nécessités provenant de sources multiples, comment les formations à l'enseignement évoluent-elles? Quels facteurs influencent leur trajectoire ? Dans le cadre de cet ouvrage, des auteurs français, belges, canadiens, suisses et africains se penchent sur le phénomène de l'évolution des programmes de formation à l'enseignement, cherchant à circonscrire les forces en jeu. Au fil de sa lecture, le lecteur découvrira les facteurs qui ont influencé, d'une façon ou d'une autre, la trajectoire des formations dans chacun des contextes décrits par les auteurs. L'ensemble des contributions permet d'apercevoir des façons dont sont initiées et pilotées les transformations ; la réaction des institutions face à la transformation accélérée des contextes professionnels ; les facteurs qui conditionnent particulièrement l'orientation du curriculum et ceux qui jouent un rôle dans la mobilisation des acteurs. Le phénomène de résistance est aussi abordé par quelques auteurs. Structuré en quatre sections, l'ouvrage explore l'influence du contexte d'exercice de la profession, la demande sociale et les cadres législatifs, les attentes et les stratégies des acteurs, et les tensions internes aux dispositifs et aux démarches de formation. On y découvre que les transformations s'inscrivent toujours dans une histoire et dans une culture et qu'elles sont fortement affectées par les rapports de force entre les groupes et les individus.

Download or read book Biosocialities Genetics and the Social Sciences written by Sahra Gibbon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2007-07-20 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biosocialities, Genetics and the Social Sciences explores the social, cultural and economic transformations that result from innovations in genomic knowledge and technology. This pioneering collection uses Paul Rabinow’s concept of biosociality to chart the shifts in social relations and ideas about nature, biology and identity brought about by developments in biomedicine. Based on new empirical research, it contains chapters on genomic research into embryonic stem cell therapy, breast cancer, autism, Parkinson’s and IVF treatment, as well as on the expectations and education surrounding genomic research. It covers four main themes: novel modes of identity and identification, such as genetic citizenship the role of institutions, ranging from disease advocacy organizations and voluntary organizations to the state the production of biological knowledge, novel life-forms, and technologies the generation of wealth and commercial interests in biology. Including an afterword by Paul Rabinow and case studies on the UK, US, Canada, Germany, India and Israel, this book is key reading for students and researchers of the new genetics and the social sciences – particularly medical sociologists, medical anthropologists and those involved with science and technology studies.
