Teacher Socialization in Physical Education : New Perspectives, Paperback / softback Book

Teacher Socialization in Physical Education : New Perspectives Paperback / softback

Edited by K. Andrew R. Richards, Karen Lux Gaudreault

Part of the Routledge Studies in Physical Education and Youth Sport series

Paperback / softback

Description

Socialization is a complex process which has a profound effect on how we experience teaching and learning.

The study of teachers' lives and careers through the lens of occupational socialization theory has a rich history in physical education.

However, as the social and political climates surrounding education have changed, so have the experiences of teachers.

This book pushes beyond traditional perspectives to explore alternative and innovative approaches to socialization.

Written by a team of leading international physical education scholars, this is the first edited collection of scholarship on teacher socialization to be published in more than two decades.

Divided into five parts, the book provides a review of current knowledge on teacher socialization in school settings, as well as suggestions for different approaches to understanding teacher socialization and recommendations for future directions for studying teachers' lives and careers. A testament to what is known and what still needs to be learned about the lived experiences of physical educators, Teacher Socialization in Physical Education: New Perspectives provides valuable insights for all physical education students, teachers, and instructors.
