Urban Teacher Education and Teaching

Urban Teacher Education and Teaching
- Used Book in Good Condition
This volume illuminates the most pressing challenges faced by urban schools, teachers, teacher candidates, and teacher training programs and offers a range of insights and possibilities for urban teacher education and teaching. Covering issues spanning the broadly theoretical to the urgently practical, it goes beyond the traditional discourses in teacher education to focus on diversity, social justice, democratic schooling, and community building. What emerges is an emphatic message of hope for those committed to the ongoing project of improving urban teacher education and working in urban settings.
Â
Contributors from Canada, the United States, and the Caribbean bring rich and divergent knowledges, perspectives, and cultural experiences to their discussion of the three central themes around which the book is organized:
â‚¬Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â the conceptual framing of key issues in urban schooling;
â‚¬Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â pre-service teacher preparation for urban transformation; and
â‚¬Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â culturally relevant pedagogy and advocacy in urban settings.
Â
This book is intended for all students, practitioners, and researchers involved in urban education. It is appropriate as a text for student teaching and field experience seminars, andÂ for courses dealing with social issues, educational policy, curriculum development, and multicultural teacher education.
