Opis

Traditional teacher education has ignored the §realities of teachers' lives both inside and outside §the classroom, failing to consider their existence §within broader socio-cultural circumstances. This §study examines the professional development and §transformation of four women teachers including my §mother and myself in China and Canada through §exploring our life experiences in socio-cultural §contexts. §I use autobiographical writings, material from in-§depth interviews and artifacts, as well as §documents. Data analysis indicates that our devotion §to teaching career, optimistic attitude to life, §success in overcoming many difficulties to become §teachers, all stem from our knowing of the Tao of §life . My professional transformation in Canada led §me to understanding teacher as a curriculum maker, §teacher development as both personal growth and §professional development, and professional §transformation as learning from relations. §This study attempts to provide a middle ground for §dialogues among teachers and scholars from different §cultural backgrounds, enabling them to understand §each other and explore new versions of teacher §education.
