Teacher Supply: The Key Issues: Continuum Empirical Studies in Education
Autor Stephen Gorard, Beng Huat See, Dr Emma Smith, Patrick Whiteen Limba Engleză Hardback – 14 oct 2006
Issues concerning the supply of teachers are of perennial concern to both policy-makers and researchers in the world of education. This trenchant and wide-ranging study not only provides major new research findings but also a re-interpretation of extant data. Combining qualitative and (very extensive) quantitative research, Teacher Supply provides a rigorous and iconoclastic treatment of issues relating to the recruitment, quality, training, and retention of teachers throughout the developed world and offers important recommendations for the future.

Caracteristici
Findings have policy implications (e.g. the impact of teacher training institutions) and are controversial: they destroy several long established myths about teacher supply and argue that governments often create the shortages themselves
