Book excerpt: The Shapiro report of 1994 (entitled Teacher education in Nova Scotia: an honourable past, an alternative future) profoundly changed the system of teacher education in Nova Scotia. Its major recommendations included the rationalization of teacher education, implementation of a two-year sequential program with enrolment targets, improved communication with the field, and encouragement of participation of minority groups. This publication presents findings of a review of some areas of the Shapiro report and a re-examination of issues & consequences of implementation of that report's recommendations. It begins with background on the province's teacher education institutions, then sets out deliberations & recommendations regarding pre-service teacher education programs (the 2-year program, specializations, the practicum, accessibility to minorities, enrolment corridors), further education for teachers (including masters & doctoral degrees), certification, governance, and funding. Appendices include data tables and a list of recommendations made.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Schools of education with utilitarian goals and strict standardization - often called "Normal Schools" - have been widely criticized by both the academy and the general public. In a story that resonates across Canada, The Grand Regulator examines an educational system that failed to inspire great teachers and produce imaginative, thinking citizens. Drawing on an array of archival materials, government publications, and firsthand accounts with former Normal School students, George Perry provides a rich reconstruction of the intellectual, social, economic, and political foundations of teacher education in Nova Scotia, and the methodological preoccupations that have hampered its subsequent development. He shows how a supposed science of education based on child psychology, in concert with the province's regulation of public schooling, justified low expectations for the education of most children and how standardized training programs deemphasized teachers' general liberal education and intellectual curiosity. The most complete study of Canadian teacher education to date, The Grand Regulator presents an analysis of perennial issues regarding the improvement of education that continue to concern us, and illuminates ways of raising the level of instruction in our present-day schools.
