Summary:

"This book describes a different approach to teacher education
designed to create "carriers of the torch" - teachers who have a
sense of efficacy and the attitudes, dispositions, and skills
necessary to teach students from diverse racial, ethnic, and
linguistic backgrounds. Through her examination of teacher change and
teacher education in two countries - the United States and South
Africa - the author proposes new ways to prepare teachers for a
rapidly changing global society."--BOOK JACKET.
