Publisher Description: Being an educator is a wonderfully fulfilling career, but it's not for everyone. It is also, at times, a frustrating, stressful, aggravating, depressing occupation. Far too many people think working in a school is a pretty easy job-a job anybody can do, basically babysitting with plenty of vacation time thrown in. Of course the "truth" about education is elusive, and the truth about what it means to be a great educator is equally elusive. These essays, which are written by educators, offer insights into the profession and what it takes to make a positive difference in the lives of others. These chapters are offered as catalysts for reflection and discussion. |
