16.057-23 - Challenging Professional Identities in Early Childhood
Thu, April 16, 2:15 to 3:45pm, Hyatt, Floor: East Tower - Purple Level, Riverside WestSession Type: Roundtable Session
Abstract
Papers in this session challenge us to reconsider authoritative discourses in professional identity construction and alternative conceptions of teaching that critically question the norms and practices of high-stakes neoliberal early education systems. Presenters highlight the potential contributions of critical dialogue--including teachers' own views about their work within high-risk environments--as constitutive parts of otherwise more traditional, outcomes-focused evaluation design.
