It neglects, however, a deeper, more  powerful inquiry: ¿Who is the person that teaches?¿  Rarely is the teacher-as-person addressed in school;  yet, a teacher¿s self-knowledge and inner development profoundly influences how he or she negotiates the  complexities of school life, interacts with others,  and implements curriculum. Following several  teachers for two years in a program called The  Courage to Teach, the author pieces together  reflections, journals, interviews, and observations,  weaving a tapestry that tells the stories of the  teachers¿ inner lives, and how they are discovered  and claimed in more conscious ways; those  discoveries further illuminate how self-knowledge  affects teachers¿ interactions and effectiveness in  school. Principals, teachers, professional  development specialists, and university faculty in  teacher education will find this work fascinating.  It carefully documents a process rarely captured in  educational literature and provides evidence of both  the importance and the complexities of teaching from  within.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783838315737\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCase Studies of the Courage to Teach Program\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783838315737","offer_id":39497100492893,"sku":"9783838315737","price":79.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/be87b513-287c-4e28-973a-9f0de9581021.jpg?v=1758871759","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/en\/products\/professional-development-as-a-process-of-renewal-von-genet-simone","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
