Many of the problems afflicting American education are the result of a critical shortage of qualified teachers in the classrooms. The teacher crisis is surprisingly resistant to current reforms and is getting worse. This important book reveals the causes underlying the crisis and offers concrete, affordable proposals for effective reform.Vivian Troen and Katherine Boles, two experienced classroom teachers and education consultants, argue that because teachers are recruited from a pool of underqualified candidates, given inadequate preparation, and dropped into a culture of isolation without mentoring, support, or incentives for excellence, they are programmed to fail. Half quit within their first five years. Troen and Boles offer an alternative, a model of reform they call the Millennium School, which changes the way teachers work and improves the quality of their teaching. When teaching becomes a real profession, they contend, more academically able people will be drawn into it, colleges will be forced to improve the quality of their education, and better-prepared teachers will enter the classroom and improve the profession.

Sinds de leerachterstand van jongens een thema is geworden, wordt in media het gebrek aan mannelijke leerkrachten als één van de mogelijke oorzaken naar voren geschoven. Jongens zouden geen rolmodel meer hebben door het groot aantal vrouwen dat, zeker in het basisonderwijs, lesgeeft. De oplossing voor sommigen is dan ook meer mannen in het basisonderwijs te krijgen. Maar is dit ook de oplossing? In dit boek komen de jongens zelf ook aan het woord. Via observatie en interviews kwamen de auteurs tot de conclusie dat de jongens geen speciale aangepaste programma's behoeven. De meesten onder hen willen les krijgen in een rustige klasomgeving, iets waar de leerkracht in kwestie voor moet zorgen. Of dit dan een man of een vrouw is doet er voor hen niet toe.
