Teachers' Work and Professionalism
Sun, April 19, 12:25 to 1:55pm, Virtual RoomSession Type: Roundtable Session
Abstract
What is the work of teachers and how has this understanding changed over time? As policy and reform efforts strive to influence education, the work of teachers evolves to meet the new demands. This roundtable will explore teacher's work as it relates to reform efforts that create an overloaded work environment, how the status of teachers is perceived by teachers unions, and how teachers in Canada navigate policy and practices to embrace inclusive education.
