Blog Assignment #14

Teaching our children can be a profession:

Teaching should be like any other profession, like law or medicine.  In order to do this several changes would have to happen. 


  • Pick from the best
    • Better academic training
    • Recruit from the top percentage of graduates
    • New reward system
  • Seniority distraction
    • Use excellence as a guiding hallmark
    • National teaching examinations
    • Supervised internship for 1-3 years
  • Radical Change
    • Teachers establish their own boards to police their profession
    • Merit-based career ladders
    • Teaching assistants
