Overview

This book tells the story of the teacher education initiative known as A Community of Inquiry in Teacher Education (CITE), which has aimed to transform learning to teach from an experience based on the acquisition of skills to one centered on the cultivation of certain dispositions. This book features the perspectives of those who have participated, including university-based instructors, school partners, former students, and graduate student researchers. Each contribute a different and valued voice to the whole composition. The result is a collection that chronicles some of the lessons learned through their many experiences. The book represents multiple viewpoints on what counts as reform in teacher education and includes the voices of students (aspiring teachers) who are rarely asked to contribute to such projects.
