Metaphors We Teach By helps teachers reflect on how the metaphors they use to think about education shape what happens in their classrooms and in their schools. Teaching and learning will differ in classrooms whose teachers think of students as plants to be nurtured from those who consider them as clay to be molded. Students will be assessed differently if teachers think of assessment as a blessing and as justice instead of as measurement. This volume examines dozens of such metaphors related to teaching and teachers, learning and learners, curriculum, assessment, gender, and matters of spirituality and faith. The book challenges teachers to embrace metaphors that fit their worldview and will improve teaching and learning in their classrooms.

Metaphors show students how to make connections between the concrete and the abstract, prior knowledge and unfamiliar concepts, and language and image. But teachers must learn how to use metaphors and analogies strategically and for specific purposes, helping students discover and deconstruct effective comparisons. Metaphors & Analogies is filled with provocative illustrations of metaphors in action and practical tips.

This book provides material and ideas for bringing metaphorical thinking into the classroom in the context of language discussions. It is organized to link the conceptual with the concrete, integrating teaching ideas with discussions concerning the various roles that metaphorical thinking plays in human understanding and communications. The book's first part, "The Nature of Metaphors and Metaphorical Thinking," discusses metaphorical thinking, how metaphors work, and the kinds of comparison involved in metaphorical thinking. The second part, "Personal and Cultural Aspects of Metaphors," deals with metaphors and self-awareness, metaphors and the enabling process, and extending self to cultural awareness. The book's third part, "Critical Aspects of Metaphorical Thinking," discusses metaphor, language, and thought; metaphors in critical reading and thinking; and metaphors and creativity. The fourth section, "A Resource Section for Using Metaphors in the Classroom," deals with strategies for metaphorical teaching, metaphors that help in teaching reading, and the importance of metaphors across content areas. A brief "Conclusion," a 27-item selected and annotated bibliography of books on metaphors and language, and a list of 170 references conclude the document. (SR)

The central idea of this thesis is that metaphors can be used to teach mathematics, particularly abstract topics such as directed numbers. Using directed numbers as a context, this study develops a framework and a coding scheme that can be used as a tool for analysing the use of metaphors in the teaching of mathematics. The part of the theoretical framework of the coding scheme is based on the work of Lakoff and Johnson (1980) and Lakoff and Nunez (2000). In those studies, the authors classify metaphors used for teaching mathematics into one of three categories: ontological, orientational and structural metaphors. By considering the source domain of metaphors, they can be classified into either grounding or linking metaphors. Similarly, the target domain of the metaphors can be categorized by the intended learning outcomes and by the functions of the metaphors. One of the primary contributions of this thesis is the development of a coding scheme that is specifically designed to analyze the use of metaphors in mathematics lessons. The scheme was then used and validated through the analysis of mathematics lessons taught by two teachers with contrasting academic backgrounds and teaching experiences. Three lessons taught by each teacher on the topic of directed numbers at Secondary One level were recorded and analysed. The metaphors used by each teacher were identified, coded and analyzed in order to determine how metaphors can be extended and transformed into other metaphors.. Finally, this thesis compared how the two teachers differed in their use of metaphors, particularly in terms of the selection, sequencing and organization of the metaphors used. This can be indicative the level of conceptual learning that is made available for students in their classes. The research questions: 1. What kinds of metaphors did the teachers use to introduce and explain the concepts and computational processes of directed numbers? 2. What functions did these metaphors serve? 3. What is the developmental path of these metaphors within and across the lessons? 4. What were the differences in the selecting, sequencing, and organization of the metaphor used by the two teachers? Findings This thesis designed and tested an original coding scheme. The findings revealed that the two teachers had used many kinds of metaphors in their lessons. They were used for classifying different kinds of numbers, constructing concepts, and explaining the properties and computational processes of directed numbers. Most of the metaphors found in this study were used to provide a cognitive function that facilitates the introduction of new mathematical concepts and helps the students make sense of the operational processes; only a few metaphors served a memorable function. When comparing the use of metaphors by the two teachers, we can analyze their teaching philosophies. Teacher 1's use of metaphors demonstrated a linear development path from a simple to a more advance perspective, whereas Teacher 2's use of metaphors revealed more comprehensive, sophisticated and multi-layered perspective. Significance of the study This study provides insights into the meaning and implication of using metaphors in teaching mathematical concepts. At research level, this study extends the existing work of Lakoff an

The ability to recognise, discuss and evaluate one’s educational beliefs and working practices in metaphoric terms has for several years been seen as a highly valuable tool for increasing self-awareness, facilitating learning (or teaching), and/or predicting behaviour. This is the first edited book solely devoted to the topic of researching elicited metaphor in education, and brings together key researchers from China, Poland, Puerto Rico, South America, UK and USA. The 12 chapters involve overviews and state-of-the-art articles, articles focussing on methodology and validation, as well as reflections on the effectiveness of techniques and research reports of recent empirical studies. The bulk of the articles relate to literacy (L1 and L2) and teacher education, but science education is also addressed. The book offers useful models for academics, professionals and PhD students in these areas, and provides solutions for improving the validity of elicited metaphor techniques in educational research.
