Reviews"A Turning Point in Teacher Education: A Time for Resistance, Reflection, and Change reminds us to be thoughtfully engaged, realizing that teacher education is a complex enterprise that demands concentrated attention to maintain its educative focus and at the same time to be critically aware of the multiple forces that are at play to undermine the professionalization of teaching. Indeed, this text is a call to action to resist those forces in an effort that works to elevate the status and honor of what it takes and means to be a professional educator." --Audrey Amrein-Beardsley, PhD, Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College, Arizona State University "Kirylo and Aldridge manage to pull off two impressive accomplishments here: reclaiming the narrative of teacher education that has been hijacked by the neoliberal market-based reform movement, and issuing a call to arms for teacher educators--and teachers--to make the pivot from advocates to activists. Teachers, by their very nature, are too often loathe to engage in the "politics" of the policy debate--and as the authors point out so convincingly, the time to get off "the bench" is long past." --Mitchell Robinson, PhD, Associate Professor and Chair, Music Education, Michigan State University, Kirylo and Aldridge manage to pull off two impressive accomplishments here: reclaiming the narrative of teacher education that has been hijacked by the neoliberal market-based reform movement, and issuing a call to arms for teacher educators--and teachers--to make the pivot from advocates to activists.

SynopsisSince teacher education looked to become a formal field of study in the 1800s, it has historically contended with competing forces in the effort to solidify its professional identity. Currently, that contention is juxtaposed with those external forces that look to promote fast-track teacher training, with its ultimate goal to dismantle traditional teacher education programs, and those internal forces, whereby teacher education within itself continues to struggle with its own identity, power, and influence. To that end, this book, A Turning Point in Teacher Education: A Time for Resistance, Reflection, and Change, suggests we have reached a climax point, a turning point in teacher education, meaning we must work to resist and denounce those external forces that are laboring to undermine the professionalization of what it means to be a teacher. Simultaneously, we must also deeply reflect and be clear about those internal forces at work when it comes to solidifying the place, power, and necessity of traditional teacher education programs, ultimately announcing the furthering of what should be., This book suggests that traditional teacher education programs must deeply reflect on solidifying the place, power, and necessity of its purpose.
