TEACHER EDUCATION FOR HIGH POVERTY SCHOOLS GEBU...

This volume captures the innovative  theory-based  and grounded work being done by established
scholars who are interrogating how teacher education can prepare teachers to work in
challenging and diverse high-poverty settings. It offers articles from the US  Australia 
Canada  the UK and Chile by some of the most significant scholars in the field. Internationally
research suggests that effective teachers for high poverty schools require deep theoretical
understanding as well as the capacity to function across three well-substantiated areas: deep
content knowledge  well-tuned pedagogical skills  and demonstrated attributes that prove their
understanding and commitment to social justice. Schools in low socioeconomic communities need
quality teachers most  however  they are often staffed by the least experienced and least
prepared teachers. The chapters in this volume examine how pre-service teachers are taught to
understand the social contexts of education. Drawing on the individual expertise of the authors
the topics covered include unpacking poverty for pre-service teachers  issues related to urban
schooling as well as remote and regional area schooling.
