Dispositions of the Moral Educator: Accepting Educational Responsibility Through Transformative Teaching

• In Event: Paper Session on Research Related to Moral Development and Education

Abstract

Moral and social justice approaches in teacher education are too rarely in conversation with one another. In this paper, we examine their intersections to address the knotty problem of reproductive teaching: the ways in and reasons by which classroom structures and processes afford learning for students with privilege while further marginalizing those from oppressed or minoritized groups (Anyon, 1981; Collins, 2009).
