Drawing on the work of Eleanor Duckworth, this volume examines
Critical Exploration in the Classroom (CEC)-a learning-teaching
research practice that positions teachers as researchers of their
students' sense-making and learners as theorizers and
investigators. By integrating CEC into their teacher education
classrooms, chapter authors have found that they can reliably
unsettle their teacher candidates' understandings about the nature
of teaching and learning and recenter their attention on the
intellectual originality and creativity of all young people. In
this way, CEC provides valuable tools in the work of creating more
equitable and democratic classrooms. Such tools are needed in a
broader environment that overvalues instrumental approaches to
achieving specified learning outcomes. Readers will find practices
that empower and sustain the deep intellectual engagement of all
learners. Integrating classroom narratives and other forms of
documentation, this resource illustrates the kinds of profound
changes in understanding that have occurred for teacher candidates
as a result of working with CEC.Book Features: Opens both the
teacher educator and teacher candidates to new ways of teaching,
learning, and being in classrooms. Demonstrates how the practice
works to counter deficit thinking by revealing students'
brilliance. Uses narratives and other forms of documentation to
characterize the potential of CEC within a diverse array of teacher
education classrooms. Portrays the many ways in which CEC has been
integrated into different disciplinary and institutional settings,
illustrating the common intellectual and interpersonal dynamics at
work. Chapter authors all studied Critical Exploration in the
Classroom (CEC) with its originator, Eleanor Duckworth.
