Descripción
Many teacher education programs globally are undergoing significant changes in response to government policy, imperatives driven by global
competitiveness, as well as local conditions. This is particularly relevant in the South African context where teacher education seeks to navigate from
the ravages of apartheid education towards addressing the developmental needs of the majority of its citizens.
This book records and explores efforts by academic staff members within the Faculty of Education at Stellenbosch University, South Africa, responding to the demands of a new program in initial teacher education. It brings together diverse views seeking to present a coherent program in the Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE). It examines how curriculum design unfolds across disciplines in the program, and crucially, the commonalities in the presentation of course material. Lecturers examine the purpose, structure and content of their teaching as they engage with putting democratic policy goals into practice in the core as well as subject-specific modules of the program.
