From Teacher to Student: The value of teacher education for experienced teachers.


Kunzman, Robert. “From Teacher to Student: The value of teacher education for experienced teachers.” Journal of Teacher Education, 54 (3), May/June 2003, 241-253.


Annotation: Teachers that have been in the classroom for quite a while tend to stop reflecting on practice and run off of instinct, past experiences, and the ease of being in a routine. In order to keep up with the ever progressing education field, teachers should find new ways to expand their background (professionally). If teachers had to go through another mini teacher education program after a few years in the field, education may begin to stop being stagnant. New ideas could be shared, and collaboration would be valued among educators.
