In this podcast we continue to explore workplace learning – particularly the subtle differences that exist between the staffrooms or PE offices we each experience. Drawing on the work of Tony Rossi, lisahunter, Erin Christensen and Doune Macdonald, this podcast considers the different spaces of teacher education. Specifically, it recognises that what you and I might see as a safe space might be perceived by another as an unsafe or challenged space. Consequently, we must be mindful of the experiences of all when considering teaching and teacher education and the tightropes people walk between research and practice.
