Considering the Embodied Knowledge of Teacher Educators

Thu, April 9, 4:15 to 5:45pm PDT (4:15 to 5:45pm PDT), JW Marriott Los Angeles L.A. LIVE, Floor: 4th Floor, Diamond 9

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

Teacher educator knowledge is an emerging topic of research in teacher education. Like teacher knowledge, teacher educator knowledge is embodied, idiosyncratic and evolving making it difficult to uncover. Teacher education assignments are a static source of this knowledge. In this session, four sets of teacher educator researchers identify and analyze assignments and articulate the Teacher educator knowledge that guides their practice. Two experienced teacher educators review the findings of these research studies uncovering shared and distinct Teacher educator knowledge held by teacher educators. This session contributes to the conversation on Teacher educator knowledge and the theoretical and practical information that informs TE practice.
