This volume illuminates the most pressing challenges faced by urban
schools, teachers, teacher candidates, and teacher training
programs and offers a range of insights and possibilities for urban
teacher education and teaching. Covering issues spanning the
broadly theoretical to the urgently practical, it goes beyond the
traditional discourses in teacher education to focus on diversity,
social justice, democratic schooling, and community building. What
emerges is an emphatic message of hope for those committed to the
ongoing project of improving urban teacher education and working in
urban settings.
Contributors from Canada, the United States, and the Caribbean
bring rich and divergent knowledges, perspectives, and cultural
experiences to their discussion of the three central themes around
which the book is organized:
- the conceptual framing of key issues in urban schooling;
- pre-service teacher preparation for urban transformation; and
- culturally relevant pedagogy and advocacy in urban
settings.
This book is intended for all students, practitioners, and
researchers involved in urban education. It is appropriate as a
text for student teaching and field experience seminars, and for
courses dealing with social issues, educational policy, curriculum
development, and multicultural teacher education.
