Content,Characteristics and Enlightenments of Pre-service Teachers' Metaphors about"Learning to Teach"
Metaphor is an effective learning style for teacher's professional learning.Texts analysis of metaphors about"learning to teach"written by pre-service teachers shows that these metaphors have substantial content and vehicles,including natural phenomena,daily life,social activities,and human spiritual phenomena.These metaphors are not only varied and rich in emo-tion,but also some of them are unique and novel.It shows the metaphors about"learning to teach"are full of individuality,creativity,and embodiment.The pre-service teachers have a rel-atively clearer understanding about uncertainty and complexity of teaching,but there are signifi-cant individual differences in the accuracy and depth of its interpretation.So they need deep un-derstandings of teaching and learning-to-teach from the perspective of"learning as creation".Research findings enlighten us that,to deepen teacher education curriculum reform,tacit cogni-tion and its rules about pre-service teachers' learning to teach should be explored delicately so as to help student teachers realize transformative learning.
