The Courage to Teach

exploring the inner landscape of a teacher's life
Book • 1997
In 'The Courage to Teach,' Parker J. Palmer argues that good teaching cannot be reduced to technique but is rooted in the identity and integrity of the teacher.

The book emphasizes the need for teachers to be authentically present in the classroom, connected with their students and the subject matter.

Palmer discusses the flaws of objectivism, the importance of community-centered learning, and the necessity of addressing the inner life of teachers in educational reform.

He advocates for a relational understanding of knowledge and highlights the importance of vulnerability and connectedness in teaching and learning.
