If teacher education, as a field of study, is to contribute to the
revitalization, re-moralization and re-politicization of Education,
this book argues that it needs to be alert to questions of
teachers' intellectual and political freedom and to concerns about
the legitimacy of what we do in teacher education, in the name of
Education. Anne Phelan demonstrates how curriculum theorizing can
serve such an educational project by engaging concerns about
subjectivity (human agency and action), society, and historical
moment, thereby widening the field of insight in teacher education
and informing debates about new trajectories for policy and
practice. Exploring teacher education through ethical, political,
aesthetic vocabularies, drawn from the Humanities, is vital at a
time when the dehumanizing influences of performativity,
standardization and accountability are evident in education systems
across the world, and when we are in danger of losing the things
that we most value and are the least measurable - relationships,
independent thought, and ethical judgment. Curriculum Theorizing
and Teacher Education will be of interest to teacher educators who
are practicing, researching, or (re)designing teacher education, as
well as policy makers who are curious about new possibilities for
framing the "problem" of teacher education at provincial, state and
federal levels.
