Historically, America has displayed an ambivalence toward
public school teachers, expecting much from them while frequently offering little respect,
meager pay, and inadequate working conditions. This program traces the evolution of
teaching as a profession, honoring educators who risked everything to stand up for
teachers’ rights. Stanford University’s Linda Darling-Hammond; Lorraine Monroe,
of the School Leadership Academy; and others talk about issues such as training,
unionization, standards, bureaucracy, and professional growth, while four intern teachers
share the lessons of their baptisms of fire. (56 minutes, color)
