Description

A Class Act: Changing Teachers' Work, Globalisation and the State by Susan L. Robertson offers a thought-provoking exploration of how teachers' work has evolved over time. Dr. Robertson argues that a new set of conceptual tools is needed to understand these changes, focusing on social class, occupational power, and worker control. The book's approach combines theoretical and empirical analysis to map the shifting nature of teaching historically and in contemporary times. It examines the impact of structural and ideological changes within educational provision on teachers' work and the realization of class assets. This insightful study provides a nuanced understanding of the complex factors influencing teachers' roles and responsibilities, making it a valuable resource for educators, researchers, and anyone interested in the evolving nature of teaching and learning.
