Career Corner: Hiring teachers before they student teach - 0 views

  • The competition for math teachers has become so tight that schools are jumping the gun and hiring these students before they even student teach.
    • Jimbo Lamb
       
      I cannot believe that a district would do such a thing! There may be good student teachers out there, but shouldn't they be certified? They need some experience!
  • Do we need to pay the math, sciences, and special education fields the equivalent to their non-education jobs? One science teacher lamented that he could double or triple his salary if he were in the "real" world. A university career services counselor said that his special education students were recruited by hospitals and health care services and paid much more than public schools could pay.

Annals of Education: Most Likely to Succeed: Reporting & Essays: The New Yorker - 0 views

  • In teaching, the implications are even more profound. They suggest that we shouldn’t be raising standards. We should be lowering them, because there is no point in raising standards if standards don’t track with what we care about. Teaching should be open to anyone with a pulse and a college degree—and teachers should be judged after they have started their jobs, not before.

      I totally agree with this statement. If I were graduating from college today with the same GPA when I did, I wouldn't be able to get my certificate due to the higher standards. Yet, here I am, now helping other (veteran) teachers improve their instruction.
