The Age of Teacher Shortages is a practical look at the reasons for
teacher shortages in schools across America, and suggests
solutions. These shortages are wide-reaching and becoming more
extensive with each passing year. Although the bulk of the teacher
shortages are within those which are state-trained and
conventionally credentialed, private schools are also reeling under
the pressure of insufficient staffing. Is there just a downturn in
adults desiring to be in the teaching profession, or are there
other elements at work? This book details elements within American
culture that are causing teachers to leave the profession early. In
addition to this attrition, the reasons less students are enrolling
in programs other than traditional teacher education programs are
also explored. Regardless the reasons for decreases in enrollment,
the effect are negative upon states, school districts, and families
across the United States. There are emergency efforts under way to
address teacher shortages. Departments of education and local
school districts are applying different certification and
credentialing strategies to both attract and keep teachers
employed. Many wonder what the overall, long-term effects of these
new methods of employing teachers will be upon education in
America. This book engages these questions, and more. In so doing,
it provides a realistic look into the impacts of teacher shortages,
alternative certifications, and causes of changes in twenty-first
century American culture.
