Carrithers, David F.; Peterson, Dean – Catholic Education: A Journal of Inquiry and Practice, 2010
This paper suggests a way of creating a distinctly Catholic economics education by integrating a social justice perspective into the curriculum through writings from Catholic Social Thought (CST). In so doing, we argue that students of economics will gain a more thorough understanding of the economics discipline. Moreover, a grounding in CST will…

Shimabukuro, Gini – Catholic Education: A Journal of Inquiry and Practice, 2008
Church documents, theology, leadership theory, and sociology come together in this article to present a pedagogy for Catholic schools that is deeply rooted in a personal faith and a contemporary understanding of the person.

Shields, Richard – Catholic Education: A Journal of Inquiry and Practice, 2008
The Catholic school system in Ontario, Canada, is fully funded by the government. Recently, Ontario's Ministry of Education mandated an induction year, the New Teacher Induction Program (NTIP), for all new teachers. This legislation provides an opportunity for Catholic school boards to take the lead and shape creative and effective programs for…

Bergman, Roger – Catholic Education: A Journal of Inquiry and Practice, 2008
How is the commitment to social justice sustained over a lifetime? This would seem to be a matter of character, and that calls attention to the Aristotelian tradition in ethics. No one provides as much insight into the challenge of the contemporary appropriation of this tradition as Alasdair MacIntyre. Although a moral philosopher rather than a…

McQuillan, Patrick J.; D'Souza, Lisa A.; Scheopner, Aubrey J.; Miller, Grant R.; Gleeson, Ann Marie; Mitchell, Kara; Enterline, Sarah; Cochran-Smith, Marilyn – Catholic Education: A Journal of Inquiry and Practice, 2009
In contrast to current education policies that conceptualize pupil learning largely in terms of standardized exam scores, we offer an alternative view, one that conceives of pupil learning as a source of insight for pupils and teachers alike. Drawing on survey data and a qualitative study of the teacher candidate experience, we explore the…

Long, Joyce F.; Moore, Raeal – Catholic Education: A Journal of Inquiry and Practice, 2008
Understanding how teachers' motivational levels respond to the course content is particularly relevant in Catholic schools, where instructors are routinely required to teach courses both within and beyond their certification area because of budgetary constraints. Students in the ACE alternative licensure program face this challenge during their 2…

Warren, Judith; Schoenig, John; McNiff, Timothy J. – Catholic Education: A Journal of Inquiry and Practice, 2005
Alternative teacher education programs have come under fire from a variety of sources--researchers, legislators, parents, even other educators. The authors' responses to the focus article provide the insights of practitioners who regularly work with teachers so prepared. Warren states that the problem addressed in this study notes the absence of…

Heft, James L. – Catholic Education: A Journal of Inquiry and Practice, 2006
Catholic institutions of higher learning compete mightily for students, faculty, and research dollars with other colleges and universities. Yet, the history and tradition of many Catholic institutions offer a unique faith perspective from which to understand and appreciate the role of the Catholic university as serving the common good. Catholic…

Buijs, Joseph A. – Catholic Education: A Journal of Inquiry and Practice, 2005
Underneath teaching there lies a conceptual framework through which we view its role and purpose. Different frameworks vary in outlook and imply contrasting attitudes and values. Which one we adopt impacts on what and how we teach. This study explores what it means to think of teaching as a profession versus a vocation. Its focus is restricted to…

Watzke, John L. – Catholic Education: A Journal of Inquiry and Practice, 2005
As staffing in Catholic K-12 schools has transitioned to a predominantly lay teaching corps over the past 50 years, a parallel process of secularization has taken place in teacher education programs at Catholic colleges and universities. The tradition of teaching as vocation in the formation of vowed religious has been replaced by standard…
