Crossing Borders: Learning and Teaching Primary Science in the Pre-Service to In-Service Transition.
Mulholland, Judith; Wallace, John
International Journal of Science Education, v25 n7 p879-98 Jul 2003
Reports on a 4-year longitudinal case study of two Australian primary science teachers during transition from preservice to inservice teaching. Interprets teachers' change and professional growth as instances of sub-cultural border crossing and the role in their construction of the borders crossed by beginning teachers. Proposes ways of assisting teachers to manage border crossing into the sub-culture of science teaching. (Author/KHR)
