As teaching is socially, culturally, and politically constructed,
it is important that teacher educators committed to social justice
attempt to create secure environment where all voices are heard and
teacher candidates can inquire into personally and socially
challenging topics within a safe and caring classroom culture.
Relationships of trust are fundamental to teaching about social
justice and to being receptive as learners in such classes.
Mindfulness on the part of teacher educators and teacher candidates
can go a long way in fostering respect, openness and acceptance in
such classes. Together they can lead to teacher educators and
candidates thinking deeply about themselves, schools and schooling
as they move towards a vision of a more equitable and just society.
The teacher educators who have contributed to this volume recognize
the challenges of balancing respect for their students with the
call to social justice. Their accounts and critical reflections
convey how relational and mindful approaches might offer positive
avenues to self and shared exploration by teacher candidates and
teacher educators alike. Several chapters attend to the challenges
for educators as they encounter culturally and linguistically
diverse contexts. Others attend to these issues within the
complexity of diverse university classrooms in order to guide
teacher candidates towards dispositions and practices that help
foster inclusion and engage diverse learners and communities.
Together, these chapters offer thoughtful approaches to living
alongside aspiring teachers as they develop deeper understanding of
the concepts of race and diversity, and inclusive approaches to
teaching and learning.
