Community-Engaged Teacher Preparation: Issues and Insights From Teacher Educators

Sun, April 14, 11:25am to 12:55pm, Philadelphia Marriott Downtown, Floor: Level 4, Franklin 11

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

Community Engaged Teacher Preparation is a growing field of research and practice that aims to challenge systemic racism and classism by creating spaces for authentic relationships among preservice teachers, community members, schools, and universities. In this session, teacher educators practicing and researching community-engaged teacher preparation at various institutions present challenges and insights from their work. Each of the six symposium papers addresses the ways in which community engagement and experiential learning are used to enrich learning opportunities for teacher candidates.
