Summary: "The Making of Teachers in the Age of Migration reveals the failure of Western nations to utilize the skills of educators who are refugees and migrants and considers the experiences of those educators as they move into the teacher workforces in their new countries. Most Western countries are experiencing a shortage in teaching personnel. Against this backdrop, a possible solution seems to be quite obvious: teachers with (forced) migration backgrounds could be employed in the school systems of their destination countries, since they didn't leave their profession nor passion for teaching behind. Written by leading scholars based in Austria, Germany, Ireland, New Zealand, Switzerland, South Africa, Turkey and the USA, the first part of the book covers theoretical issues including decolonization, curriculum reform, inclusivity and citizenship. The second part of the book includes case studies with examples of success and failures from Austria, Brazil, Germany and Zimbabwe."--Summary: „The Making of Teachers in the Age of Migration“ zeigt das Versagen westlicher Nationen bei der Nutzung der Fähigkeiten von Lehrkräften, die Flüchtlinge und Migranten sind, und betrachtet die Erfahrungen dieser Lehrkräfte bei ihrem Wechsel in den Lehrerberuf in ihren neuen Ländern. Die meisten westlichen Länder leiden unter einem Mangel an Lehrpersonal. Vor diesem Hintergrund scheint eine mögliche Lösung ziemlich offensichtlich: Lehrkräfte mit (Zwangs-)Migrationshintergrund könnten in den Schulsystemen ihrer Zielländer beschäftigt werden, da sie weder ihren Beruf noch ihre Leidenschaft für das Lehren aufgegeben haben. Der erste Teil des Buches, verfasst von führenden Wissenschaftlern aus Österreich, Deutschland, Irland, Neuseeland, der Schweiz, Südafrika, der Türkei und den USA, behandelt theoretische Fragen wie Dekolonisierung, Lehrplanreform, Inklusivität und Staatsbürgerschaft. Der zweite Teil des Buches enthält Fallstudien mit Beispielen für Erfolge und Misserfolge aus Österreich, Brasilien, Deutschland und Simbabwe.
