In the post No Child Left Behind climate, many experienced teachers
are beginning to think seriously about leaving education for a less
stressful career. Recent statistics reveal that fifty percent of
new teachers leave the classroom before the end of their fifth year
of teaching. Therefore, it is vitally important that experienced
teachers remain in the classroom. Professional learning
communities, such as the one described in this book, are one method
of encouraging teachers to stay in the profession. This book first
addresses the causes of teacher attrition, and then describes a
study in which teachers wrote their own educational autobiographies
using currere, a structured reflection process. Analysis of the
data in this qualitative study includes the use of narrative
analysis, feminist analysis and hermeneutics. A hermeneutic cycle
of data analysis is developed. This book will be especially helpful
to school district administrators, K-12 principals and teachers,
and those at the university level.
