Transformation and Teaching in the Movies

Authors

  • James Rhem Executive Editor of The National Teaching and Learning Porum

Abstract

Do the stories we tell ourselves about teaching through the movies reflect anything significant about what teaching is really like? James Rhem argues that the stories movies tell reflect some of the most profound, indeed archetypal, truths of teaching and the subtleties of transformation for both teacher and student which teaching brings about.   Copyright of Reflections: Narratives of Professional Helping is the property of Cleveland State University and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites or posted to a listserv without the copyright holder's express written permission.
