Reforming Teacher Preparation and Licensing: What is the Evidence?
Ballou, Dale; Podgursky, Michael
Teachers College Record, v102 n1 p5-27 Feb 2000
Using professional self-regulation in medicine as a model, the National Commission on Teaching and America's Future has proposed sweeping changes in how teachers are trained and licensed, claiming that the reforms are well-grounded in research. This paper challenges the Commission's conclusions and argues that the research literature offers far less support for the Commission's recommendations than is claimed. (SM)
