Demographics and Teacher Education: An Overview.
Hodgkinson, Harold
Journal of Teacher Education, v53 n2 p102-105 Mar-Apr 2002
Reviews demographic data, highlighting changes in U.S. demographics from Census 2000 and other sources, and exploring the relevance for education, particularly teacher education. The paper notes that given the push for standardized test scores as educational reform, schools of education will eventually be held accountable for the knowledge and skills of their graduates as well as the scores of their public school students when they enter teaching.
