Taking the angle of the teacher | Professor Gert Biesta | GTC Scotland Annual Lecture 2024

In his lecture, Professor Biesta will discuss the strong tendency in contemporary education to argue that everything should be about learners and their learning.
While this may sound attractive, it forgets that there would be no education without teachers and teaching. What then, does it mean, to look at education from the angle of the teacher? And why might this angle be important in the current ‘age of learning’?
