Grumet, Madeleine R.

Theory into Practice, v32 n4 p204-09 Fall 1993

Exmaines what teaching is about by moving the concept of the virtual from scholarship to teaching. After maintaining that teaching is an art as well as a science, the article examines how teaching is a virtual reality and notes how it amplifies, dramatizes and criticizes that world. (SM)
