Popis: |
In very different ways, dry stone walls and black stumps evoke sets of images and meanings ascribed to living in the rural areas of Ireland and Australia respectively. For the purposes of this chapter, they highlight as well the challenges and opportunities in professional learning encountered by teachers working in rural educational settings. To be successful, these teachers need to engage in effective self-study calibrated to the distinctive contexts of their work. Yet we argue that self-study must also take account of the politicised character of the places and spaces of current rural life. Throughout, our purpose is to examine how this then speaks back to a teacher education constituency against the backdrop of wider socioeconomic developments helping to frame the work of teachers and teacher educators in both countries. |
