Synopsis

This book aims to provide a reflective close-up view of the teacher's world. Through a case study of one teacher's planning, her classroom teaching and the biographical context she brings to her work, this study gives a classroom perspective on the knowledge teachers have and use. Central points of the book include an analysis of the role of reflection in changes in teachers' knowledge and action, and an appreciation of the place of continuity and tradition in understanding teachers' work.
