CP 92-2 Discussing teacher education in China and relevant debates in the United States with a Chinese teacher: A conversation with Yu Yi.
Abstract
Last year, the National Center for Research on Teacher Learning began a cross-national study of the ways in which experienced teachers work with novices to help them improve their practice. We were fortunate to meet Yu Yi in Shanghai and to gain her participation in our work. In this paper, Yu Yi is interviewed about the mentoring program in her school and about her theories about how a novice can learn from their teachers.
