商品描述

This edited book presents a comprehensive analysis of South Africa's Foundation Phase (FP) Initial Teacher Education (ITE) programme, drawing on four years of longitudinal research conducted by the Global Institute for Teacher Education and Society (GITES) at Cape Peninsula University of Technology. It explores the preparedness of pre-service teachers and the programme's capacity to produce quality educators for transformative learning. Through data gathered from two universities between 2015 and 2018, the book examines four key areas: motivations and beliefs about teaching, subject-specific pedagogical experiences in Mathematics and Language, academic and historical journeys of student teachers, and the overall quality of the ITE programme, including teaching practicum and institutional support.

The book deepens the conversation around teacher education in post-apartheid South Africa. It critically engages with national ITE policies and highlights the urgent need to reconceptualise teacher preparation to meet Sustainable Development Goal 4 targets. With evidence pointing to gaps in teacher competence and the quality of instruction, this volume offers timely insights and practical recommendations for enhancing ITE programmes. It is an essential resource for policymakers, educators and researchers committed to improving the quality of teaching and learning in South African classrooms.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書對南非基礎階段(Foundation Phase, FP)初任教師教育(Initial Teacher Education, ITE)計畫進行了全面的分析,基於全球教師教育與社會研究所(Global Institute for Teacher Education and Society, GITES)在開普半島科技大學進行的四年縱向研究。它探討了預備教師的準備情況以及該計畫培養優質教育者以促進轉型學習的能力。通過2015年至2018年間從兩所大學收集的數據,本書檢視了四個關鍵領域:對教學的動機與信念、數學和語言的學科特定教學經驗、學生教師的學術與歷史旅程,以及ITE計畫的整體質量,包括教學實習和機構支持。

本書深化了對後種族隔離南非教師教育的討論。它批判性地參與國家ITE政策,並強調重新構思教師準備以滿足可持續發展目標4的迫切需求。隨著證據顯示教師能力和教學質量存在差距,本書提供了及時的見解和實用建議,以提升ITE計畫。這是一本對於致力於改善南非教室教學與學習質量的政策制定者、教育工作者和研究者而言,必不可少的資源。
