Retrieving Meaning in Teacher EducationThe Question of BeingUniversity of Nebraska-Lincoln
University of Nebraska-Lincoln
University of Nebraska-Lincoln In this article we examine "meaning" and "action" within the "good" work of teaching and learning. One premise of our argument is that teachers and students deserve to experience this good. The second premise is that meaning is part and parcel of Being; the debate about meaning must include attention to meaning as a question/project of Being. We offer our experiences as an educational anthropologist, educational philosopher, and teacher educator who strive to retrieve and pursue meaning and Being as common resources and aspirations.
