М2 shows that the model of teaching and learning and the practice

are the outcoπιe of patterns of relationships developed over time

and this is complex.



is only the students themselves who


can decide how to shape their own practice in the light of all of

this .


Such shaping is a continuous process and it involves


the


eschewing of readily available solutions.

..... It’s very tempting to go in there and
pretend that I’m a bit aloof so that you
can get yourself established in the first
place. I’m not advocating that whatsoever
but I can see how it would be quite a common
reaction.

This is not easy and the pressure from many staff, pupils and sometimes

other students moves towards traditional solutions. Acceptance of

such solutions may be observed in the organisation of course content

for in education courses classroom control frequently

appears early


as if its


practical


accomplishment


by students is a realistic basic


initial requirement.


The tutor’s


concern in this process is making


available alternative perspectives
and supporting students while

they explore and experiment. Here the hidden curriculum of the course

may be at


its most apparent for if the students see staff practices

as contradicting theories and practices they purport to hold then
credibility is severely taxed. In the Research Group this was offered
as an explanation for student rejections of parts of the main PGCE
course. The collision was not over content and issues but approaches
and pedagogy.27 The next extracts show both tutor and student talking

about their engagement with the literature under discussion.
