Embedding Social Justice in Teacher Education and Development in Africa
Routledge (Verlag)
978-0-367-34853-3 (ISBN)
The edited volume focuses on a wide range of relevant aspects, such as decolonisation, economic models, environmental concerns, as well as multilingual and multicultural aspects of education. Evidence-based chapters cover strategies used to support preservice and in-service teachers on how best to tackle issues of social justice through induction activities, pedagogy and discipline content, involving local communities, and the role of technology, including the use of open educational resources. The principles underlying these strategies are being used in the COVID-19 pandemic and will be equally relevant in the post-COVID-19 world.
This book will be of great interest for academics, researchers and postgraduate students in the fields of teacher education, African education, educational policy, international education and comparative education.
Carmel McNaught is a Distinguished Visiting Professor at the University of Johannesburg, South Africa and Emeritus Professor of Learning Enhancement at The Chinese University of Hong Kong. Sarah Gravett is Professor of Education and the Dean of the Faculty of Education at the University of Johannesburg, South Africa.
