In teacher education, field work in community-based spaces
(including foster homes and programs for homeless youth) is
frequently contrasted with "traditional" field experiences in
classroom settings, where beginning teachers are immediately
introduced to teacher-centered models of instruction. This volume
works against such a model, presenting a counter-narrative of new
teachers' understanding of the act of teaching. By exploring their
work with at risk youth in community-based sites, the authors
uncover how non-traditional spaces for teaching and learning have
the potential to open new doors for reimagining the teaching act
and teacher identity. This volume examines how prospective teachers
have used writing within unconventional spaces as catalysts for
considering what it means to become a teacher, as well as how the
work of teaching can be conceptualized. It unites the practical
aspects of field work and with theoretical conceptions of teaching,
and envisions how the work and the definition of "teaching" can be
broadened.
