Abstract | This chapter draws on the preceding chapters in Part 2 of this volume to consider the Graduate Teacher Performance Assessment (GTPA) task and its implementation from the perspective of cultural-historical activity theory. Concepts of re-mediation and motive object of activity are used to explain how the GTPA and the work of the GTPA Collective have changed practices of teacher education in Australia and fostered the agency of participating teacher educators. Blunden’s concept of collaborative projects as the appropriate unit of analysis for understanding the development of human practices is employed to show how the GTPA has re-mediated initial teacher education practice across a range of scales. The chapter concludes with a call to build further on recent developments that reveal the potential of the GTPA for preservice teachers to experience the assessment as a collaborative project. |
