About this product
Product Information
Education activist William Ayers invites new and prospective teachers to consider the deepest dimensions of a life in teaching. Should I become a teacher? How can I get to know my students? What commitments come with me into the classroom? How do I develop my unique teaching signature? In his new book, about Becoming A Teacher , Ayers muses on 10 such questions (and a little more) to shape and structure an indispensable guide that features hands-on advice and concrete examples of classroom practice, including curriculum-making, building relationships with students and parents, fostering an effective learning environment, and teaching toward freedom. This brilliant and concise text offers a conception of teaching as both practical art and essentially ethical practice. Book Features: Specific strategies for becoming a successful classroom teacher. Foregrounds the ethical and intellectual qualities of excellent teaching. Recognizes the complexity of teaching even as it provides a map to achieve excellence. Accessible without oversimplifying the content and reducing teaching to something anemic and superficial.

Reviews
"Ayers's short book is not short of encouraging vision, and his diagnosis of some of the systemic problems of education is insightful. " --Community Literacy Journal, " About Becoming a Teacher reads as a combination of a pre-game pep talk, thought-provoking excursion, and vivid memoir woven together in a brief 85 pages. Ayers encourages the reader, presumably anyone considering entering the teaching profession, to ponder how their deeply held values and personal mission regarding the purposes of schooling intersect with the creation of classrooms that honor the 'three-dimensional' potential of the learners who inhabit them." --Teachers College Record, "William Ayers is an always-astute writer on the relationship between teaching and society; he is critical, funny, philosophical, poetic, warm." --Rethinking Schools, "Written as a message to prospective teachers, Ayers highlights the complexity of the work of educators while also offering practical advice. His advice pushes prospective educators to consider both broad issues of the field as well as daily decision-making in the classroom. The book is simultaneously candid about the challenges and complexity of teaching and encouraging about its possibilities to those entering the field." --Teachers College Record, "An absolute 'must read' for anyone contemplating teaching as a profession...unreservedly recommended as a core addition to college and university library Teacher Education collections." --Midwest Book Review
