- Summary:
- This book examines teacher education through the lens of personal narrative and critical research, focusing on the development of a teacher education program in New York City. Authored by Carmen I. Mercado, a Puerto Rican educator, it explores how cultural, historical, and policy contexts influence education for migrant students and minoritized populations. The book emphasizes culturally responsive and sustaining pedagogies while critiquing universal standards that fail to address the diverse needs of students. It offers a method for understanding and addressing local educational challenges rather than prescribing universal practices, providing valuable insights for teacher educators worldwide.
