Teachers Wanted: Attracting and Retaining Good Teachers

0 comments





Association for Supervision & Curriculum Deve | 2004 | ISBN: 0871208814 | Pages: 115 | PDF | 1.83 MB
The public school system in the United States faces a perpetual challenge in attracting and retaining well-qualified teachers. In Teachers Wanted: Attracting and Retaining Good Teachers, Daniel A. Heller provides an insider’s view of the sources of this ongoing problem–and powerful suggestions for resolving it.

Drawing on national research as well as his own 30 years of experience as a teacher, a principal and an administrator, Heller argues for a new concept of public education, beginning with the nature of teacher training. He advocates partnerships between public schools and higher education to provide a real-world view of the profession to young teacher interns. Within the schools, Heller espouses active gatekeeping by teachers and administrators, effective mentoring between teachers, community induction programs, ongoing inservice training, and high performance standards.

At the heart of many of these changes stands the principal. From upholding the mission of the school, to interviewing and hiring teachers, to empowering staff to make decisions affecting their own work, to creating an atmosphere in the school that fosters professional development, the principal plays a key role in breathing new life into the teaching profession.

We can revitalize teaching–if we are willing to embrace new roles and responsibilities across the educational community. Teachers Wanted offers practical insights into the changes that are essential to building a dynamic, intellectually challenging school environment that will attract and keep the most highly qualified teachers.

Seeing Through Teachers’ Eyes: Professional Ideals and Classroom Practice

0 comments

Teachers College Press | 2006 | ISBN: 0807746835 | Pages: 105 | PDF | 1.01 MB
What sources of inspiration help sustain teachers’ commitments, motivations, and care for their work? How do teachers use their ideals to inform their practice and their learning? The author proposes that many teachers have images of ideal classroom practice which she calls “teachers’ vision.”

In this book, Karen Hammerness uses vision to shed light on the complex relationship between teachers’ ideals and the realities of school life. Through the compelling stories of four teachers, she reveals how teacher educators can help new teachers articulate, develop, and sustain their visions and assist them as they navigate the gap between their visions and their daily work. She shows us how vision can:

* Illuminate those emotional and passionate moments in the classroom that enrich and enliven their work as teachers.
* Explain what teachers learn about their students, their teaching, and their schools.
* Reveal why some teachers choose to stay in teaching and others leave the profession.

Helping Teachers Develop

Paul Chapman Educational Publishing | 2005 | ISBN: 1412918995 | Pages: 144 | PDF | 1.38 MB
Helping teachers develop - whether they’re trainees, newly or recently qualified, in their first three, ten or twenty years, and whether they’re superb or struggling - is vital for the profession, for the millions of children who’ll learn more as a result.

Schools have to take greater responsibility for staff’s continuing professional development (CPD) but there is little real help for the people who develop teachers. The best teachers will be expected to mentor trainee and newly qualified teachers (NQTs) and share good practice with all colleagues.

Drawing directly on real-life experience and the latest research, this book will help people in a mentoring, coaching, advisory or management role to:

develop teachers, through understanding adult learning and the CPD cycle
meet needs from the range of professional development activities
carry out observations and give oral and written feedback in a range of situations
help and monitor planning and other parts of the job
help teachers develop their careers.

Using examples from current practice, Sara will take you though every stage of CPD, from what professional development is to how you can support and monitor staff in your own school. There are photocopiable materials for you to use.

The guidance in this book will be essential for mentors, induction tutors, CPD/staff development coordinators, people with advanced skills or excellent teacher status, and all those with a leadership and management role in schools or local authorities.

How to Help Beginning Teachers Succeed

0 comments



Association for Supervision & Curriculum Deve | 2000 | ISBN: 0871203820 | Pages: 111 | PDF | 1.09 MB
Nearly half of the beginning teachers in the United States drop out of teaching within the first seven years. Understanding why those teachers leave and identifying the needs of new teachers are key to addressing the attrition rates of a schools staff and those of educators across the country.

Gordon and Maxey explore the reasons beginning teachers struggle and provide research-based plans for helping these newcomers make the most of their initial teaching years. They propose Beginning Teacher Assistance Programs (BTAPs) as a practical strategy for success. BTAPs have a proven track record for improving beginning teachers skills, attitudes, and chances of fulfilling their potential as educators.

A BTAP draws on the knowledge and expertise of teachers, principals, central office administrators, and school-based staff. Using any variation of a BTAP, your school can pair beginning teachers with mentors and a support team that may include school and district personnel, as well as community representatives and members of higher education.

The authors guide you through several options and ideas that you can use to support beginning teachers, allowing you to tailor a BTAP to fit new teachers needs in your school community.
