What's Preparation Got To Do with It?
Cochran-Smith, Marilyn
Journal of Teacher Education, v53 n2 p99-101 Mar-Apr 2002
This editorial spotlights what teacher preparation has to do with: (1) teaching quality and school children's educational experiences and (2) equity, access to educational opportunities, and preparing all citizens of a demographically diverse society to live in democracy. It examines a California lawsuit, Williams v. State of California, which was brought in 2000 by the American Civil Liberties Union on behalf of children in 18 public school districts. (SM)
