Teacher Learning and Identity Change in Social Studies Professional Development: A Career-Spanning Perspective
Sat, April 15, 2:50 to 4:20pm CDT (2:50 to 4:20pm CDT), Swissôtel Chicago, Floor: Event Centre, 1st Floor, Montreux 2Session Type: Symposium
Abstract
This symposium uses an integrative theoretical framing for social studies teacher learning and identity development using the Dynamic Systems Model of Role Identity (DSMRI; Authors, 2017), which emphasizes the complex, socioculturally mediated development of an individual’s perceived role in a social situation (PD, or the classroom) as a means to understand motivated behavior. The phenomena of interest in this symposium include the decisions and actions of social studies teachers that emerge from their self-perceptions, goals, beliefs, emotions, and action possibilities in relation to teaching history content, including difficult histories, to diverse groups of students.
