Abstract:
This book is the now-classic story of one teacher's odyssey into the ethical and intellectual heart of teaching. It has inspired teachers across the country to follow their own paths, face their own challenges, and become the teachers they long to be. This third edition is vital reading amidst today's public policy debates and school reform initiatives that stress the importance of "good teaching". It offers: Inspiration to help teachers reconnect with their highest aspirations and hopes ; A practical guide to teaching as a moral practice ; An antidote to teaching as a linear, connect-the-dots enterprise.
