Abstract | The professional expectations for today's teachers are high. They must work to prepare students for new economic realities, use new and innovative pedagogical techniques and technologies, adapt their instruction to meet students' increasingly diverse needs, and adjust to recent policy reforms that directly affect their practice. These changes have reshaped teaching, making it a more difficult and demanding profession. At the same time, however, research is demonstrating the powerful effect that teachers can have on student learning and illuminating the ways in which great teaching is more important than ever before. This report is a progressive vision and policy agenda to achieve goals that would ultimately make changes to every stage of the teacher career continuum and modernize the system as a whole. It is a transformation that begins with recruitment and selection into teacher preparation programs and continues on to new teacher training and support, professional development, compensation, and opportunities for career advancement. This report guides the reader through a teacher's career trajectory, beginning at recruitment and selection and continuing throughout his or her career. The report's mission is to provide policymakers and the public with a forward-thinking document that proposes how to elevate and modernize the teaching profession. The authors argue that elevating the teaching profession cannot be solved by one policy change; instead, changes must be made to every step of the teacher pipeline. For this reason, they have paired each section--representing each stage in a teacher's career--with its own recommendation(s). (ERIC). |
