The American Teacher
July 29, 2011
In the long run we shape our lives and we shape ourselves. The process never ends until we die. And the choices we make are ultimately our own responsibility.
-Eleanor Roosevelt
-Eleanor Roosevelt
For example, one of the very few black teachers, at a high school in San Francisco, loved his job, and his students adored him. But his inability to support his family led him to pursue a new career and left his students devastated by his departure. An elementary school teacher in New Jersey is fresh out of Harvard and personifies the smart, young teacher anyone would want for his or her kids. But even her strong commitment to her students ultimately gets pushed aside when weighed against her own financial needs.

These are not your typical training DVDs. No scripts. No staged events. Imagine sitting down for a one-on-one conversation with some of the leaders in the field of early care and education. Imagine them presenting at your next class, staff development, or training session. This is the concept behind Voices on DVD.
This powerful series of DVDs offers you practical ideas and experienced insights from seasoned professionals who speak with the passion and perspective that can only come from years of working with directors, teachers, young children, and their families. Interlaced with real-life classroom video, they provide a rich platform for staff development and training sessions that will inspire, motivate, teach, provoke new thinking, and generate lively discussions.

As always, your commentaries are timely and provocative...thanks. Sadly, when I clicked on the link to the American Teacher, I was unable to get sound with the short video clip. Is this my issue or one connected with their site? I would very much like to view the clip and also wonder how I could view the entire documentary. Is it showing somewhere? Can it be purchased? I think it would make an excellent conversation starter for a faculty meeting.

Public school teachers after getting a 4 degree start off even in Georgia at $40000 for a 190 days per year. Many other 4 year degrees start at $25000 for a full 12 month year and social workers with masters degrees often start at $30000 per year and if they are lucky may get to $45000 max within their field. We do pay our teachers a decent wage but many of them either don't care or are incapable of delivering an honest quality education to our children. There are probably many reasons for this some of which is out of their control including parental and administrative support. But just throwing more money will not solve basic issues.
