Abstract

KALLAWAY, Peter. "I used to think ... and now I think!": Notes from a South African teacher educator. Y&T [online]. 2023, n.30, pp.85-103. ISSN 2309-9003.  https://doi.org/10.17159/2223-0386/2023/n30a5.

What is the role of the school and the teacher in the context of democratic social transformation? How has it changed globally and in the South African context during the past fifty years? Is there room for optimism among teacher educators in the 21^st century? I offer some modest reflections on my own career in the hope of provoking some debate from colleagues.

Keywords : History of Education; Autobiography; South Africa; Teacher education; History education; Educational policy; Apartheid; Historiography.
