Este ambiente onde a natureza forja o indivíduo com as marcas da aridez e das limitações climáticas é o mesmo em que o trabalhador, o campesino, a mulher e o negro ainda necessitam, cada um em seu campo de luta, enfrentar questões relacionadas com as dificuldades de acesso às ações governamentais, bem como as oportunidades de ascensão social e desenvolvimento l...
Quando, como cientista social, o pesquisador para com vista a ouvir as histórias de vida dos irrigantes de Bebedouro, ele se permite entrar em um cenário de grandes realizações, onde os verdadeiros mitos são pessoas simples, agricultores e agricultoras que, diante de uma oportunidade para mudar sua história, não hesitaram e enfrentaram até a própria natureza para transformar sonhos em frutas exportadas para as mais nobres mesas do mundo.

This book presents recent international research on how teacher educators, institutions and policy makers perceive, act on and experience the dual responsibility that teacher educators are required to develop. Teacher educators are both teachers and researchers, a hybrid position which might be challenging to fulfil. Teacher education has attracted much research over the years. It has also been subject to national and international debates about its goals and core features as well as issues of quality and effectiveness. More recently, attention has been given to the work, identity and professional development of teacher educators. The various chapters in the book address the topic of teacher educators as teachers and researchers in diverse countries and contexts, namely Australia, Belgium, England, Ireland, Israel, Portugal, Norway and the USA. Collectively, the authors examine the work of teacher educators considering their core mission, their professional development opportunities and the demands and needs of their working contexts. The chapters in this book were originally published in a special issue of the European Journal of Teacher Education.
