This volume is the first handbook that brings together cutting-edge
international research on teacher ethos from a broad array of
disciplines. The main focus will be on research that illustrates
current conceptualizations of ethos and its importance for acting
effectively and responsibly in and out of the classroom. Research
will encompass updated empirical and philosophical work that points
to the difference in learning when teaching is practised as a moral
activity instead of a merely functional one. Authors are among the
world's foremost researchers whose work crosses over from moral
education into psychology, neuroscience, sociology, philosophy,
pedagogy, and curriculum, drawing on these various fields of
research. Today, more than ever, we understand that teachers, like
other professionals, need more than subject-matter expertise for
acting responsibly and doing their best in their daily duties.
Doing so requires possessing a guiding system of professional
ethics, moral positioning, goals, norms, and values - in other
words: a professional ethos. While the handbook concentrates on
Western domains in the current era, the work will extend to other
cultures and times as well. With this comprehensive range of
perspectives, the book will be attractive and useful for
researchers on teachers and teaching as well as for teacher
educators, curriculum designers, educational officials, and,
last-but-not-least, anyone who is interested in what makes a good
teacher. This volume is also a tribute to Fritz Oser, a leading
scholar in research on ethos, who sadly passed-away during the
compilation of this handbook.
