Description: Language Teacher Identities : Co-constructing Discourse and Community, Paperback by Clarke, Matthew, ISBN 1847690815, ISBN-13 9781847690814, Brand New, Free shipping in the US As part of its modernization efforts, the United Arab Emirates recently started training young women as English language teachers for its primary schools. After noting the historical relationship between female gender and teaching as a career in the US, Clarke (education, U. of Hong Kong) examines what he terms the heretofore "invisible" (., in conventional analysis) social and political discourses constructing these student teachers' identities and their "community of practice." From their responses to questionnaires, he treats the role of the English language as "a ramp to a different world" for these teachers as agents of change. The foreword is by a U. of Michigan professor of education and international training. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
