Series: Keywords in Teacher Education

Issues of identity are paramount in addressing what it means to be a teacher and teacher educator in a diverse educational world, and this book faces this challenge head on. The complex and contested view of teacher identity offers a lens for the exploration of the personal and the professional, informing both what teachers and teacher educators do and think. Steadman charts the relevance of identity to the formation of teachers and teacher educators, addressing issues around professional identity. In foregrounding the inevitability of conflict in the formation of the teacher identity, this book raises important issues for teacher educators as they navigate these tensions. The book explores the importance of collaboration between schools, universities and communities in the ongoing development of teacher and teacher educator identities and the provision of relevant and democratic education for all.

Reviews for Identity: Keywords in Teacher Education

This slim, rich book leads us through the whole (and holistic) history of identity in teacher education-with a focus on definitions and uses of the term, the power of blurring lines among components of teachers and school improvement, and the dynamic nature of teachers learning in a changing world. * Brad Olsen, Senior Fellow, The Brookings Institution, USA *
