Session Submission Summary

Teacher development as identities in the making: Discursive positioning in research on teacher education and professional development

Sat, December 3, 8:30 to 10:00am, Omni Nashville, Floor: Level 2, Broadway Ballroom H

Session Submission Type: Symposium

Abstract

This symposium brings together four papers that address how literacy researchers and teachers negotiate complex political demands in their work. Collectively, these papers situate teacher development as contexts for identities in the making, and argue for transformative inquiry that nurtures the development of teachers who are able to negotiate complex political terrain and teach against the grain.
