Chapter Overview
Effective teachers reflect on their reasons for teaching. In Chapter 1, students explore
teaching as a career and consider the reasons they and others choose to teach. Reasons
include: desire to work with young people, interest in subject matter and teaching,
influence from former teachers and family, and job security.
Students consider the professionalization of the teaching profession, and compare the
field with other “professions.” Salaries, benefits, and incentives are presented, as well as
an honest appraisal of the job outlook for teachers in the future.
