Beschreibung
This book is a narrative inquiry that focuses on four participating Chinese teacher candidates’ cross-cultural learning in Canada and stories of induction in Southwest China. Through the lens of “three-dimensional inquiry space” and “reciprocal learning in teacher education,” the author explores the influence of cross-cultural experiences on the dissonance of pedagogies, teacher-student relationships, socialization, and beliefs about teaching and learning that interweave global and national curriculum boundaries. The chapters provide insight into how Chinese beginning teachers struggle to voice and to socialize among a cacophony of past practices, lived experiences, and cross-cultural experiences.
Offers a unique look at how Chinese beginning teachers change due to cross-cultural learning and how they adapt to curriculum reform in China Provides perspective on Chinese teachers’ current practices as well as how such practices continue to change and thus also influence teaching reforms in the globalized world Appeals to scholars researching intercultural teacher development, study-abroad programs, international student teaching, teacher induction, Chinese educational reform, and comparative education as well as those interested in the broad social and political benefits of building cultural bridges between the East and the West
