The suggestions for Further Readings below, as for each chapter on this website, follow the structure of the printed book chapter. So, in this instance, we begin with a discussion about our journeys into teaching, before beginning to explore our sector, its learners and their reasons for continuing or returning to education. We finish the chapter by introducing the concept of reflection, our views about teaching and what impact these views will have for a teacher in FAVE.
For a discussion on the theme of “teacher-self” and teachers as autonomous individuals see:
