Sexual Orientation and Teacher Identity: Professionalism and GLBT
Politics in Teacher Preparation and Practice examines the nature of
LGBTQ issues and teacher identity as social, cultural, and
political constructs. In particular, the contributing authors to
this collection of chapters present a collection of chapters
(contemporary discourses) that will illuminate and critique the
practices, structures, and politics in both teacher preparation
programs and public school settings that affect LGBTQ teachers and
their identity in relation to the struggles of teachers as
professionals face in obtaining recognition. The contributing
authors of the book focus on teachers are entering educational
settings where difference connotes not equal, and discourses of
LGBTQ politics, identity, and difference are interwoven with a
realization of discrimination and marginalization. The authors,
drawing on their personal and professional experiences, give much
needed voice to recognition and the formation of identity from a
LGBTQ viewpoint as they relate to teachers, teacher educators, and
other cultural workers responsible for shaping professional
identities of teachers and for teaching students in schools and
classrooms across the nation.
