Who Is Prepared to Teach in Urban Schools?
Stoddart, Trish
Education and Urban Society, v26 n1 p29-48 Nov 1993
To examine the hypothesis that alternative routes to teacher certification are more likely than traditional routes to recruit successful urban school teachers, beliefs and practices of 45 secondary English and mathematics novice teachers from both routes were studied. Findings confirm the importance of teacher sensitivity to urban multicultural environments. (SLD)
