Beskrivning

Why do new teachers change schools or leave the profession? Stories from Novice Teachers: This is Induction? attempts to address this question. In this book, we feature the stories of a dozen novice teachers and how they were, or were not, mentored or inducted by their schools. Using data collected over a three-year period-close to 1,000 emails and face-to-face interviews, the cases presented in this book can inform school principals and district-level administrators of the situations that promote or hinder new teacher growth so that we can lower attrition rates and foster student achievement. The cases presented in this book range from problems in the faculty lounge to unsupportive colleagues to "too much" induction.

Recensioner i media

Real books about teaching are always a treasure. Not told from the lofty perch of an ivory tower or by another blue-ribbon committee intent on producing a top-down approach to learning, this book is special because it is the voice of teachers - English teachers, special ed teachers, and just plain teachers - filled with all the complexity and ambiguity that all good teachers face when they are met with the realities of classroom life. This is a terrific read, one that will be embraced by all teachers of all levels and interests - who are seeking to do the 'right thing' for kids (students) of all ages.
