Teacher Educators and the Production of Bricoleurs: An Ethnographic Study.

Hatton, Elizabeth

International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education, v10 n2 p237-57 Apr-Jun 1997

Reports and discusses data from an ethnographic study of teacher educators in which a metaphor for teachers' work as bricolage generates a hypothesis about teacher education as a conservative determinant of teachers' work. Discusses the results and reasons why the theoretical adequacy of the bricolage explanation needs improvement. (DSK)
