These norms are often informal\, and they may not be obvious to external observers at first glance. Obviou s or otherwise\, teacher norms can be a key contributor to the fact that m any children around the world complete primary school without learning how to read\, write\, or do basic maths. For example\, in some education syst ems\, dominant norms may prompt teachers to pursue curricular completion r ather than children’s understanding\, or to pay more attention to high-s coring students than to their less academically prepared classmates.\nThis webinar marks the launch of a significant new project on teacher norms. T itled Purpose\, pressures\, and possibilities: Conversations about teacher professional norms in the Global South\, the project takes the form of an asynchronous symposium of 14 paired interviews between 28 interlocutors w ith complementary expertise in different contexts or areas related to teac her professional norms. At the webinar\, we will launch a book that compil es edited transcripts from the interviews together with three discussant-s tyle essays in which other experts reflect on the paired interviews. \nTh e webinar will begin with a brief introduction to the project by project e ditor Yue-Yi Hwa. This will be followed by a roundtable in which a number of interlocutors from the teacher norms project: Belay Hagos Hailu\, Yamin i Aiyar\, Joaquín Walker (representing colleague Verónica Cabezas)\, Lau ra Savage\, and Barbara Tournier. The roundable will grapple with the inte ntionally provocative question of\, “Should we try to reorient teacher p rofessional norms toward student learning—and\, if so\, how should we do this?”\nNext\, the roundtable will field some questions for the audienc e. Finally\, the roundable will conclude with closing remarks from discuss ant essay author Barbara Bruns.\n \; ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.ukfiet.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/0 5/RISE.png CATEGORIES:Webinar END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
