Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a narrative inquiry that focuses on four participating Chinese teacher candidates’ cross-cultural learning in Canada and stories of induction in Southwest China. Through the lens of “three-dimensional inquiry space” and “reciprocal learning in teacher education,” the author explores the influence of cross-cultural experiences on the dissonance of pedagogies, teacher-student relationships, socialization, and beliefs about teaching and learning that interweave global and national curriculum boundaries. The chapters provide insight into how Chinese beginning teachers struggle to voice and to socialize among a cacophony of past practices, lived experiences, and cross-cultural experiences.

Download or read book Environmental Education in Pre service Teacher Training Programs in Canadian Tertiary Institutions written by Emily Shu-Ying Lin and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Continually identified as one of the key agents of change, teachers play an important part in promoting and improving the capacity of individuals to address environmental and development issues and problems. The preparation of pre-service teachers is especially critical in achieving environmental and ethical awareness, as well as in developing the values, attitudes, skills and behaviours conducive to a sustainable future. However, despite being recognized as a major priority for research and action in many major international conferences on environmental education, environmental education research in pre-service programs has been given little attention in Canada. The only systematic national evaluation of environmental education at the teacher preparation level in Canada was conducted by John Towler (1980-81), nearly 20 years ago. Since Towler's (1980-81) survey, there have been few investigations examining the status of environmental education in Canadian pre-service teacher preparation programs. Towler surveyed pre-service teacher education programs across Canada and reported that many of the respondents at that time did not indicate a high level of commitment to implementing environmental education in teacher programs, despite the call for increased environmental education at all levels of education. This present study was an attempt to assess the status of environmental education at the teacher preparation level since Towler's study. A national survey using a modified version of Towler's questionnaire was distributed to all pre-service teacher training institutions across the Canadian provinces to determine the present level of environmental education which pre-service teachers receive in teacher preparation programs. In addition, two case studies examining the design, content, and methods of two pre-service teacher education courses with specialization in environmental education were conducted to understand and describe the nature of environmental education currently found in pre-service teaching programs.

Additionally, it covers social and affective issues such as identity and attitudes toward mathematics. Covers methodologies in studying emotion in mathematical knowledge Reflects the diverse and innovative nature of the methodological approaches and theoretical frameworks proposed by current investigations of emotions and mathematical cognition Includes perspectives from cognitive experimental psychology, neuroscience, and from sociocultural, semiotic, and discursive approaches Explores the role of anxiety in mathematical learning Synthesizes unifies the work of multiple sub-disciplines in one place

Download or read book Teacher Education Around the World written by Linda Darling-Hammond and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-19 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teachers are the most important single element of the education system but what does it take to create high quality teachers in today’s world? Around the world, countries are struggling to understand how to change their schools to meet global demands. International comparisons have shown that schools in Finland lead the league tables, but why is this, what new policies and practices in teacher education have they developed and how do they support the changes? A number of European and Asian countries also top the list when it comes to providing high quality teacher education, but there is little information about what and how they are doing the work and how they have made changes. The leading international contributors to this book describe the systemic policies and practices of teacher education in eight high-achieving countries and how they are dealing with teacher quality, equity, and the changing global society. Among the countries that are doing well – Finland, Singapore, the Netherlands, the UK, Hong Kong, Canada, Australia and the USA – there is an interesting diversity of policies and practices that support their changes in education, including: emphasis on the preparation, induction, support and assessment of new teachers focus on teacher retention, teachers’ professional knowledge and continuing professional development curriculum change and critical policies. In addition the chapters highlight the local cultural imperatives that influence and shape the preparation of quality teachers and make change both possible and problematic. Teacher Education Around the World examines what can be learned from the different countries, what policies and practices seem transferable; and which seem embedded in the particulars of the culture of the country. It describe themes that cut across all the countries, documenting not only what they are, but how the countries go about supporting and sustaining changes in teacher education. This book will prove itself an absolute essential for all those involved in teacher education, teaching and educational policy.

Download or read book Teacher Education for High Poverty Schools written by Jo Lampert and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-10-15 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume captures the innovative, theory-based, and grounded work being done by established scholars who are interrogating how teacher education can prepare teachers to work in challenging and diverse high-poverty settings. It offers articles from the US, Australia, Canada, the UK and Chile by some of the most significant scholars in the field. Internationally, research suggests that effective teachers for high poverty schools require deep theoretical understanding as well as the capacity to function across three well-substantiated areas: deep content knowledge, well-tuned pedagogical skills, and demonstrated attributes that prove their understanding and commitment to social justice. Schools in low socioeconomic communities need quality teachers most, however, they are often staffed by the least experienced and least prepared teachers. The chapters in this volume examine how pre-service teachers are taught to understand the social contexts of education. Drawing on the individual expertise of the authors, the topics covered include unpacking poverty for pre-service teachers, issues related to urban schooling as well as remote and regional area schooling.

Download or read book Pre service Teacher Education and Support of Children s Rights written by Alison Jessome and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "N 1991, Canada signed and ratified the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC). As such, Canada pledged to disseminate information regarding children's rights and the CRC to children and adults alike. While Nova Scotia has taken a first step in the area of children's rights education by implementing a children‟s rights curriculum, it is thus far unknown as to whether teachers and other adults are educated in this area. This study addresses the question of teacher education in the area of children's rights by assessing pre-service teacher knowledge and education of several rights documents. Support of children‟s rights in the classroom and knowledge of the CRC is also assessed. Due to small sample size, results are largely discussed qualitatively. Few participants in this study were familiar with the CRC, but all were in support of learning more. The implications of adult education in the area of children's rights are discussed, as well as Nova Scotia's obligations under the CRC and the province‟s Education Act." -- from abstract.

Download or read book Teaching Teachers to Teach Peace A Reflective Pre service Case Study written by Tiffany Anne Bartlett and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis explores the relationships between pre-service teacher training, peace education, anti-racism education, gender equity education and conflict resolution. Specifically, this study investigates the mandatory School and Society course within the Initial Teacher Education Program at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education at the University of Toronto, to explore peace education training within the pre-service teacher education program. The methodology employed involves the combination of a curriculum analysis and reflective case study; both are utilized to illustrate the author's experiences as a pre-service student, and the training received during this program. The findings illustrate that components of a peace education curriculum are observable in the Initial Teacher Education program. There is however, no formal requirement for delivering peace education within the program. As a result, this thesis offers recommendations for the development of formal peace education training in OISE/UT's pre-service program.
