Studies have shown that teachers appreciate intrinsic rewards, such as student achievement, positive relationships with students, self-growth, and mastery of professional skills, far greater than extrinsic motivators, like holidays and salary (Plihal, 1981; Plihal, 1982; Ashiedu & Scott-Ladd, 2012; Baleghizadeh & Gordani, 2012).

Rogotzke, Kathy; Zoellner, Craig; Larson, Kacy; Fallis, Nancy – MathAMATYC Educator, 2010
Concerns about the quality of math and science education in the elementary grades often focus on the shortage of well qualified teachers at that level, a shortage that reflects both a lack of interest among prospective teachers in teaching mathematics and science (Committee on Science, 2007), and the need for solid preparation in mathematics for…

Schmoker, Mike – Phi Delta Kappan, 2009
States are in fiscal funk. This means that "ambitious education initiatives" are being scuttled.

Sartorius, Tara Cady – Arts & Activities, 2010
There is something disappointing about life. It is messy and out of control. It seems the more one tries to put life in order, the more ordering there is to do. The more one seeks explanations, the more confusing things become. Life's an impossible task. Maybe one should just give up. Or, then again, one might as well keep trying. It's this…
