Routledge Teachers' Ethical Self-Encounters Monograph Book

Explore deep theoretical perspectives and narrative accounts in this monograph from the Studies in Curriculum Theory Series. Published by Routledge, this work provides elementary and secondary educators with autobiographical insights into the classroom experience. It examines the necessity for teachers to engage with counter-stories when addressing complex issues such as colonization, war, and genocide. By combining Pinar's concept of ethical self-encounters with theories of subjective reconstruction, multidirectional memory, and autobiographical narration, this volume offers a rich look at the teaching profession. It looks at how educators can meet their ethical responsibility to question the curriculum through consistent self-reflection and self-formation. This book serves as a resource for those studying curriculum theory and the role of the educator in a changing social landscape.
