Examining Shifts in Teachers' Student-Centered Practices as a Result of Practice-Based Teacher Education

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

Supporting teachers to enact high quality practice centered on students’ sense-making is critical to quality education (Author et al. 2019). Too frequently, students of color and students impacted by poverty are denied access to the kind of responsive teaching that values their knowledges and lived experiences and thereby promotes meaningful learning (Salazar, 2013). To interrupt race- and class-based disparities in the kind of teaching practice that students have access to, some scholars and practitioners advocate for practice-based training education (PBTE). However, there has been limited research into whether and in what ways PBTE influences teachers’ subsequent practice. This proposed symposium presents research examining the impacts of PBTE on the instructional practice of teachers across the career spectrum.
