Abstract
In a longitudinal, cross-disciplinary study of teachers’ experiences with the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards (NBPTS) certification process in Georgia, discourse related to the notion of performance surfaced in the data in a variety of ways. A poststructural perspective suggests an explanation for how teacher performances are enabled and limited through what it means to be “teacher” in this society.
