Too many teachers?

The WSJ came out with a scathing report on the influx of teachers in America, that basically extra teachers add nothing to math skill development and subsequent science-based jobs of the future- I'm honestly not sure what to make of this, except that doesn't creativity count as well? Doesn't a good teacher foster creativity in 21st century learners?

  1. Montie,this is a very interesting article that I am glad you shared. I was shocked to hear that it says there aer too many teachers in America. However, as you mentioned, I believe there is a difference between teachers and effective teachers. We need creative, considerate, passionate teachers who love what they do and want to help children. I don't think you can ever have enough innovative educators who want to make a difference.
