Whatever Happened to the Sociology of Education in Teacher Education?
Reid, Ivan; Parker, Frank
Educational Studies, v21 n3 p395-413 Oct 1995
Considers the decline of sociologically informed education courses in England's teacher education system. Teacher unemployment and conservative attacks took their toll on England's educational system. In addition, emphasis shifted away from theory in favor of practical knowledge and classroom management. Although truncated and forced underground, sociology of education still exists. (MJP)
