It discusses evidence in the literature that teaching does not directly ''produce'' learning and that nurturing learning is a complex business which relies on both ''art and science''. Current policies and compliancy agendas influencing the content of ITE programmes are analysed, and the text provides practical suggestions for how to nurture professional judgement in trainee teachers through HE provision and school-based mentoring. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt describes the dynamism of those who teach in classrooms and reminds teacher educators of the value and necessity of managing structure and improvisation, protocol and intuition which are at the heart of what it means to be a professional. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eA new addition to our \u003ci\u003eCritical Guides for Teacher Educators\u003c\/i\u003e series.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57306029851006,"sku":"NW9781915080684","price":30.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9781915080684.jpg?v=1778516733","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/en-eu\/products\/nurturing-professional-judgement","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
