Ending Teacher Shortages

"The coauthors synthesize in one comprehensive volume the most up-to-date research on teacher shortages in public schools.

They identify how highly localized challenges for schools become entwined with large-scale trends and make recommendations that shift administrators away from purely prevention-oriented models and toward the intentional creation of teacher-centered policies.

By focusing on the reasons teachers report staying in their jobs, rather than why they are leaving, educational leaders and policymakers can take meaningful steps toward make teaching a more valued and sustainable profession"-- Provided by publisher.
