Workplace Learning in Physical Education - Tony Rossi - Bog

Workplace Learning in Physical Education explores the workplace of teaching as a site of professional learning. Using stories and narratives from the experiences of pre-service and beginning teachers, the book takes a closer look at how professional knowledge is developed, investigating the notions of `professional¿ and `workplace learning¿ and examining the literature associated with `teacher practicum¿, `fieldwork¿ and `school experience¿. As well as identifying important implications for policy, practice and research methodology in physical education and teacher education, the book also shows how research can be a powerful medium for the communication of good practice. This is an important book for all student, pre-service and beginning teachers working in physical education, and for anybody with an interest in the wider themes of teacher education and professional practice.
