Substitute Teaching Undergoes New Scrutiny

dietcokeporfavor:

The mythology surrounding the substitute teacher is not a pretty one: Paper airplanes, lost learning, bullying. But as schools collect more information about teacher absenteeism and its consequences, districts and schools are exploring ways to professionalize substitute teaching—or experiment with alternative ways of coping with teacher absences.

I think this is a topic that would be interesting to much of the #education community, so I’m reblogging it here.

Please discuss!
