Becoming Somebody in Teacher Education : Person, Profession and Organization in a Global Southern Context, Hardback Book

Becoming Somebody in Teacher Education : Person, Profession and Organization in a Global Southern Context Hardback

Part of the Routledge Research in Teacher Education series

Hardback

Description

Becoming Somebody in Teacher Education explores the realities of contemporary teacher education in Kenya.

Based on a long-term ethnographic fieldwork, it views the teacher training institution as a space to grow, become and be shaped as teachers in complex moral worlds.

Drawing on a rich conceptual and theoretical vocabulary, the book shows how students in these teacher education institutions constantly negotiate and confront the complex constructions of ethnicity, gender and class, as well as moral, religious and academic issues and a lack of resources encountered in the different institutional cultures.

It outlines a complex array of concerns affecting student teachers that shape what professional becoming means in a stratified and diverse culture. This story of the process of growing up and becoming a professional teacher in an African setting will appeal to researchers, academics and students in the fields of teacher education, organizational studies, international education and development, social anthropology and ethnography.
