Professional identity is questioned when care is considered an epistemological and ethical approach to educational relationships, thereby encouraging reflection on the interactive components of identity (projection, disposition, worldview and action plans) and on the meaning of professional competence. This reflection produces transversal implications for teacher professionalization processes, which in turn results in the identification of training devices such as narratives, conversations and reflective and operational practices that help to turn the identity and the moral work of teaching into the central topic. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/UZ/262131 info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccess All rights reserved http://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/ 1.1 2024 0.549 2024 Education 2024 Q2 2.1 2024 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Merino Orozco, Abel (orcid)0000-0003-1025-4277 Arraiz Pérez, Ana Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0003-2380-8662 Sabirón Sierra, Fernando Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-5639-8973 4001 625 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
