This work is aimed at student teachers making the transition from initial teacher education into the teaching profession. Contributors are actively involved in programs for initial and continuing teacher education at the University of Glasgow and Glasgow University. In addition to examining learning and teaching strategies, they consider wider socio-political and economic trends in the UK influencing the priorities identified for education. Th can be used as a course text and has been structured to allow for group discussion as well as individual reflection, with questions, brief case studies, a glossary, and annotated chapter lists of print and web resources. Section 1 explores where policies come from and looks at debates surrounding specific education policies in the UK. Section 2 explores the learning experiences of children and young people and examines issues related to equality and social justice. Section 3 focuses on professional practice as it has been altered by developments in the policy and learning contexts. A final chapter offers a vision of what it means to be a teacher in an education system seeking to promote global justice. McMahon heads the Department of Educational Studies at the University of Glasgow. Annotation ©2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
