This book on pedagogy, research, and philosophy in teacher education expands the imagination of justice-oriented education and arts-based scholarship. Based on a multi-year study of Jones? use of feminist pedagogies, the book seamlessly moves between classroom practice, theory, and philosophy in a way that will offer something for everyone: those who are looking for new ways of doing teacher education, those who hope to better understand philosophy, and those who seek new ways of doing inquiry and scholarship. 0Demonstrating through pedagogy, method, and form that we?have more power than we think? and don?t have to repeat what has been handed down to us, the creators critique the restrictions of traditional teacher education and academic discourse.
