Teacher Education as Cultural Re-appropriation: Critical and Theoretical Perspectives from across the Globe (Routledge Research in Teacher Education)

This genuinely novel, cutting-edge volume advocates for a teacher education system that re-balances the influences of modernity and tradition, providing a theoretical, critical examination of West-centred notions of teacher education development in order to demonstrate what a culturally re-appropriated teacher education programme of the future might look like.This book explores theoretical and research-focused ways to understand re-appropriation as a new and radical approach to international development generally and teacher training specifically, promoting experiential learning and the integration of indigenous perspectives with a modern system.Chapters showcase a rich variety of research and evidence from field-based studies, looking at contexts such as a mathematics teacher education programme in Nepal; migrant teacher experience in Norwegian schools; play-based pedagogy in early childhood education in Ghana; and conflict and climate education in teacher education in South Sudan.The
