Levine, A. (2006) - Notes

Levine opinion piece to the Chronicle - Expectations for Teachers Misplaced.

• no agreement on appropriate type of preparation (4 year bac, post-bac, masters etc.)
• some agreement on important proposals for improving teacher prep p. 38
  • strike a balance between theory and practice
  • better teacher induction
• heavy emphasis on admission rates throughout
  • “Such high admission rates in the schools we visited were invariably a mark of a weak institution. (See Table 18.)”
