"Patrick and Karen Jenlink highlight current work by teacher educators from universities across the United States, focusing on teacher preparation and the challenges of standards and accountability, the No Child Left Behind Act, licensure and certification issues, increasing diversity, social justice, shifting demographics, and the myriad of social concerns that make schools and teaching problematic." "The portraits presented in the chapters explore new ways of learning to teach, set against the backdrop of a changing America. Importantly, they present a narrative window that reflects a re-imagining of teacher education as culturally and ethically responsive. The contributors demonstrate an understanding of the need to set aside conventional practices for new mediums of expression and learning and constructing new and alternative pedagogies for learning."--Jacket.
