Description

Country Teachers in City Schools: The Challenge of Negotiating Identity and Place explores what it’s like to be a country teacher in a city school.

Through conversations with teachers who grew up one place and ended up teaching in another, Chea Parton investigates the role of place on the personal and professional identity building of teachers as well as the way their identities influence their teaching practice.

To conclude, Parton highlights important considerations for teacher education programs as they work to support and prepare teachers to be successful no matter where they land.

She also provides concrete teaching strategies that classroom teachers and teacher educators can use to foster place-conscious identity work.
