"This book is comprehensive in its account of what goes into the substance and process of preparing the professional educator, from selection to induction into teaching. The story that unfolds in the collaboration of the University of Connecticut and several schools is one of redesigning virtually every component into something quite different from what existed before without stopping the traffic of future teachers from crossing the bridge topractice."— This practical volume redefines teaching as a profession with pronounced service and moral dimensions. shows how this new paradigm can be instilled in teacher education programs and in teaching practice. The authors argue that thepractice of teaching requires much more than knowledge andtechnical competence. It calls for reflection and inquiry, adedication to democratic principles, and a strong commitment to educational renewal and change. The authors reveal how teacher education can be structured to emphasize the moral and service responsibilities of the profession—especially by forging closeties with local schools and communities—to produce caring and effective teachers. Richly illustrated with research and real-lifeexamples of good practice, proposes a newstandard that focuses on preparing teachers for a climate of school renewal and change.
