Learning To Teach in Rural Classrooms.
Piane, Barbara M.
Phi Delta Kappan, v79 n8 p596-601 Apr 1998
Describes a classroom-based teacher education program that helps men and women move from other occupations through a period of "risky imbalance" to meaningful new role of rural school teacher. A survivor of the 1960s, the Upper Valley Teacher Training Program is a state-approved, nonprofit, independent program using services of academics from many New England colleges and universities and practitioners from a 100-mile radius.
