Critical Voices in Teacher Education: Teaching for Social Justice in Conservative Times
We live in dangerous times when educational policies and practices are debated largely in terms of how they fit with the needs of the free market. This volume is a collection of writing by teacher-educators that draws on their unique biographies, experiences and perspectives to denounce these misguided norms. It explores what it means-practically and intellectually-to teach for social justice in conservative times. In a globalised world where the power of capital holds sway, the purposes of social instituti...

The Handbook of Research on T...

From Technicians to Teachers: Ethical Teaching in the Context of Globalized Education Reform
From Technicians to Teachers provides theoretical and practical reasons for suggesting that widespread, international curriculum reform of the post-1990 period need not deprofessionalise teaching. The widely held deprofessionalisation thesis is both compelling and fatalistic, leading to a despairing sense that teachers are either no more than technicians, or that they can be reprofessionalised through definitions of effective teachers' promoted by the reforms. However, there are many teachers who do not see...

Effective Teaching With Technology in Higher Education: Foundations for Success
This is not one of those technology-is-the-panacea-for-all-educational-ills books; that's why I liked it.

They elaborate on the steps t...
