Abstract:

An exploration of how criticality can be developed among language
teachers. This book is designed for teacher educators who are
preparing teachers to work in a variety of global language education
settings including pre-kindergarten through 12 bilingual classrooms
and Sheltered English Immersion (SEI), as well as adult and community
TESOL courses.
Through vignettes that highlight their own journey as critical teacher
educators, Christine Montecillo Leider and Johanna M. Tigert provide
insight into how they address various challenges of language teacher
education, including a banking model approach to language education
and the need to de-center both the English language and American
approach to language education.
Each chapter offers a variety of reflective activities that both early
career and veteran teacher educators can use to enhance their own
development as critical teacher educators. Further, the authors
provide a roadmap for how these reflective activities can be adopted
to foster criticality among language teachers. Grounded in critical
pedagogy and critical friendship, this book translates critical theory
to praxis, providing a guide for teacher educators who seek to
transform their approach to teacher education practice.
