Teaching the Next Generation of Teachers looks to serve the many
teachers who teach or sponsor classes, clubs, or conferences for
secondary school students who aspire to become teachers. Based on
the author's research with students in the Tomorrow's Teachers
program, the book's development is rich with the voices of students
and their reflections on how teachers sometimes inspired them to
teach and sometimes impelled them to think of new ways to teach.
Their personal stories as learners will validate all students'
experiences as it both invites and inspires aspiring teachers in
secondary schools to fulfill their dreams by becoming teachers.
Guided by the learning community concept, it presents research and
practical activities that will assist teachers and their students
in re-imagining and re-inventing what teachers and schools do. It
does this as it presents important research on how professional
learning communities have the most positive effects on student
learning while also empowering teachers to greater job
satisfaction. Most importantly, this book will serves as a
practical, how-to guide so secondary school students can begin to
experience working in a professional learning community as they
strive to improve the schools they are in right now. In doing this,
the book adheres to the idea that 'student leadership now is the
best preparation for teacher leadership later.' It will help
aspiring teachers move away from the many stale traditions in
schooling as they re-conceive of the profession in ways that will
make it more personally satisfying while acknowledging that the
work of teachers in the 21st century must necessarily be different
from what we have now, legacy practices of standardization left
over from the industrial age.
