Awakening Teacher Voice and Student Voice: The Development of a Feminist Pedagogy
Weisner, Jill
Feminist Teacher: A Journal of the Practices, Theories, and Scholarship of Feminist Teaching, v15 n1 p34-47 Aug 2004
In this paper, the author presents a narrative describing both her personal life and professional life, sharing the development of her teaching strategies and their relationship to feminism. She details how her background, politics, insecurities, strengths, and values directly influenced the development of her teaching pedagogy, asserting that, particularly in the world of teacher development, the central ingredient missing is the teacher's story.
