Description

Teaching Core Practices in Teacher Education by Pamela Lynn Grossman offers a practical approach to teacher education that focuses on developing essential teaching skills. The book advocates for an approach that identifies and supports novice teachers in learning how to enact core practices, such as facilitating whole-class discussion and maintaining classroom norms. The contributors present a series of pedagogies that teacher educators can use to help preservice students develop these teaching skills. These include representations of practice, which break down the skill into its component parts, and approximations of practice, where preservice teachers can try out the skills as they learn. The book also features vignettes illustrating how core practices can be incorporated into the teacher education curriculum. By addressing the need for teacher educators to support novice teachers in mastering professional skills, this book aims to promote ambitious and equitable instruction across institutions and beyond formal teacher education programs.
