Drawn from a collection of narrative data from postgraduate students, the author explores these topics through school placement, career choice motivations, the attractiveness of the teaching profession, the presentation of personal and professional selves, and professional standards. The findings of this study can be applied across both European and global dimensions. The use of narrative methodology for data collection, in addition to the implementation of various theoretical frameworks, ensures that the book holds a wide appeal. Interweaving theory with personal experiences, this reflective book will appeal to students and scholars of ITE, as well as early career researchers and practitioners.TeachersTraining ofProfessional educationVocational educationPhilosophy of mindSelfSchool management and organizationSchool management and organizationTeaching and Teacher EducationProfessional and Vocational EducationPhilosophy of the SelfOrganization and LeadershipTeachersTraining of.Professional education.Vocational education.Philosophy of mind.Self.School management and organization.School management and organization.Teaching and Teacher Education.Professional and Vocational Education.Philosophy of the Self.Organization and Leadership.370.711Mifsud Deniseauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut759249BOOK9910299537803321Professional Identities in Initial Teacher Education2533104UNINA05231nam 2200673 a 450 991095829370332120251116231737.00-8070-4157-2(CKB)1000000000541969(OCoLC)646769168(CaPaEBR)ebrary10256096(SSID)ssj0000258529(PQKBManifestationID)11238438(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000258529(PQKBWorkID)10272553(PQKB)11312848(MiAaPQ)EBC3118026(MiAaPQ)EBC6067742(Au-PeEL)EBL3118026(CaPaEBR)ebr10256096(CaONFJC)MIL523478(OCoLC)922967767(Au-PeEL)EBL6067742(BIP)26754049(BIP)49647323(EXLCZ)99100000000054196920070207d2007 uy 0engurcn|||||||||txtccr"They take our jobs!" and 20 other myths about immigration /Aviva Chomsky1st ed.Boston, Mass.

The problems this book raises are so huge that there's nothing we can do about them -- Epilogue -- Timeline.Claims that immigrants take Americans' jobs, are a drain on the American economy, contribute to poverty and inequality, destroy the social fabric, challenge American identity, and contribute to a host of social ills by their very existence are openly discussed and debated at all levels of society. Chomsky dismantles twenty of the most common assumptions and beliefs underlying statements like "I'm not against immigration, only illegal immigration" and challenges the misinformation in clear, straightforward prose. In exposing the myths that underlie today's debate, Chomsky illustrates how the parameters and presumptions of the debate distort how we think--and have been thinking--about immigration. She observes that race, ethnicity, and gender were historically used as reasons to exclude portions of the population from access to rights. Today, Chomsky argues, the dividing line is citizenship. Although resentment against immigrants and attempts to further marginalize them are still apparent today, the notion that non-citizens, too, are created equal is virtually absent from the public sphere. Engaging and fresh, this book will challenge common assumptions about immigrants, immigration, and U.S. history.Myths Made in America SeriesImmigrantsUnited StatesPublic opinionPublic opinionUnited StatesUnited StatesEmigration and immigrationPublic opinionUnited StatesEmigration and immigrationGovernment policyImmigrantsPublic opinion.Public opinion304.8/73Chomsky Aviva1957-768593MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910958293703321"They take our jobs!"4467071UNINA
