Beschreibung
The premise for this research is that between 1944 and 2007 the vertical discourse of Further Education Initial Teacher Training in the form of the disciplines of Sociology, Psychology and Philosophy has been eroded over time though increased government regulation. It involved analysis of archive documents, survey questionnaires to current providers of FEITT and follow up interviews with teacher educators and used a conceptual framework of the classification, framing and recontextualisation of vertical discourse. The data showed that the vertical discourse had become fragmented but remained in a recontextualised form in which it had changed its classification and framing from a discipline and knowledge-based epistemological, through a process of reclassificatory or dual recontextualisation. In this new form, the recontextualisation of disciplinary knowledge becomes one that requires teacher educators, to face both ways, in the delivery of vertical discourse.
