AILACTE's Journal and Monographs
The AILACTE Journal is a refereed journal with national representation
on its editorial review board published by the Association of
Independent Liberal Arts Colleges for Teacher Education. The AILACTE Journal is documented by ERIC. Enjoy perusing the 2008 AILACTE Journal, recently released in PDF format.
The journal, published annually, solicits
manuscripts concerned with teacher education, including teaching
and learning, induction, in-service education, and pre-service
education. Project descriptions, research reports, theoretical
papers, debates, papers espousing a particular point of view,
and descriptions of activities or issues in teacher education
at the local, state, or national level would be appropriate topics
for the journal. Generally the journal is non-themed. However, the 2010 journal will be themed (see 2010 Journal news below).
The cost of an additional copy of the journal is $10 and
can be ordered during the membership renewal process each winter.
Journal News for 2010:
- The AILACTE 2009 Journal were sent to member institutions in November 2009.
- The AILACTE Publications Committee and the Editoral Board of The AILACTE Journal announces a themed issue for 2010: Teaching for Equity. Teaching for equity suggests that all educators envision an equitable teaching and learning environment and are dedicated to making equity visible in their own practice. As teacher educators, we enter our classrooms with specific values, perspectives and understandings based on our experiences. Similarly, our candidates enter our programs with specific values, beliefs and attitudes toward themselves and others. These unique perspectives are central in setting expectations and creating motivating environments, creating teaching and learning goals, and focusing candidates on curricular and instructional goals for equitable practices. In what ways has your program been able to influence candidates to teach for equity? What innovative practices or models of effective practice have you developed? What evidence do you have that candidates in your program are able to teach in culturally responsive ways to support all learners?
