Teaching Selves argues that being a teacher is not a matter of simply adopting a role but rather involves the construction of an identity as a teacher. Focusing on identity, the book tells the stories of six undergraduate students enrolled in a secondary teacher education program at a large state university. Through a qualitative study made up of interviews, observations, and teaching experiences with the subjects over a three-year period, the author explains the process of becoming a teacher, concentrating on the influences of education courses and other features of the teacher education program. Filled with students'' stories and personal reflections from the author, Teaching Selves offers a personal vision of what is possible in a very public endeavor-the education of new teachers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"State University Press of New York (SUNY)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51038160978263,"sku":"9780791450048","price":22.96,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/teaching-selves-identity-pedagogy-and-teacher-education-suny-series-teacher-preparation-and-development-9780791450048","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
