商品簡介
Twelve academics and administrators from the U.S. and New Zealand contribute ten chapters examining the ways that international and domestic intercultural field experiences, especially student-teaching opportunities that immerse candidates in another culture for a sustained period of time, can help refresh and reshape teacher-education programs while addressing significant global concerns. Included are chapters addressing foundational aspects of this work, case studies focusing on specific dimensions of the programmatic experience, and a reflective look at how the international experience links with the essential work of Paulo Freire.
