Critical Feminism and Critical Education

An Interdisciplinary Approach to Teacher Education

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Challenging the current state of public education and teacher preparation, this book argues for a re-imagination of teacher education through a critical feminist and critical education perspective. Offering a rich discussion of the promise and pedagogy of self-reflexivity and testimonio, which emerges from critical feminism, this book brings together theory and practice in critical feminism, critical education, and testimonio to serve as a platform in which to reconceptualize the philosophy of traditional teacher education, arguing that too many of programs prepare teachers who often preserve, rather than challenge, the status quo.
