The Struggle for the Soul of Teacher Education is a much-needed
exploration of the unprecedented current controversies and debates
over teacher education and professionalism. Set within the context
of neo-liberal education reforms across the globe, the book
explores how the current struggles over teaching and teacher
education in the US came about, as well as reflections on where we
should head in the future. Zeichner provides specific examples of
work that moves teacher education toward greater congruency between
ideals and practices, while outlining the basis for a new form of
community-based teacher education, where universities and other
program providers, local communities, school districts, and teacher
unions share responsibility for the preparation of teachers.
Ultimately, Zeichner problematizes an uncritical shift to more
practice and clinical experience, and discusses the enduring
problems of clinical teacher education that need to be addressed
for this shift to be educative. Readers are sure to gain insight on
transforming teacher education so it more adequately addresses the
need to prepare teachers capable of providing a high-quality
education with access to a rich and broad curriculum, and
culturally and community responsive teaching for everyone's
children.
