Reclaiming Caring in Teaching and Teacher Education

Beschreibung

Defining caring as a moral and intellectual relation, Reclaiming Caring in Teaching and Teacher Education positions caring as a crucial factor in the teaching-learning process and as a powerful professional stance for teachers. After presenting the findings of a study exploring preservice elementary teachers' initial beliefs and understandings of caring and examining the ways those preconceptions were challenged during the students' field placement period, Lisa S. Goldstein develops a model of teacher education that identifies commitment, community, and passion as the cornerstones of caring teaching. Rooted in the moral and intellectual relation view of caring, this model prepares teachers to build a strong foundation for their professional practices and to take advantage of the pedagogical power of caring in their work with children.

Rezensionen

«Lisa S. Goldstein is a thoughtful and convincing scholar who draws from sources as diverse as bell hooks and Robert Sternberg to present a richer, more multifaceted understanding of caring. In this book, Goldstein moves beyond previous scholars to help us understand caring not only as a moral enterprise, but as it relates to pedagogical and curricular decision making and the education of future teachers.» (Dwight Rogers, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill)
«Few academics understand the intricacies of teaching with care. Lisa S. Goldstein does. Goldstein captures the complex intellectual and emotional components of caring teaching. She provides a clear and rich depiction, one that honors both the profession of teaching and the work of teacher educators. Her work is a treat.» (Dan Liston, School of Education, University of Colorado at Boulder)
