Subscribe Teacher shortage ruled out State has plenty, ASU study shows Pat Kossan The Arizona Republic Jan. 26, 2003 12:00 AM Arizona's supply of teachers is slightly above demand, with 1.2 available for every job opening through 2010, according to an Arizona State University study to be released today. "Conventional wisdom has been that there's a dire teacher shortage," said Rob Melnick, director of Morrison Institute for Public Policy. Instead, the study showed demand for the 6,880 new teachers needed each year would fall by almost 1,000 after 2006. The study is about teacher quantity, Melnick said, not quality. A thin job market makes it impossible to select the best teachers. "You show me 1.2 applicants for a job," Melnick said, "and I'll show you a quality problem." Teacher supply and demand in Arizona Highlights from "Is There a Teacher Shortage? Demand and Supply in Arizona" to be released today by Arizona State University's Morrison Institute for Public Policy.

In the next decade, nearly two million new teachers will be needed because of class-size reductions, teacher retirements, and enrollment increases.

Just one example: The bylaws of the American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education specifically prohibit for-profit membership.

THIS DIGEST WAS CREATED BY ERIC, THE EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES INFORMATION CENTER. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT ERIC, CONTACT ACCESS ERIC 1-800-LET-ERIC TEXT: Teacher shortages and public discussion about the quality of teacher education have been catalysts for the implementation of alternative routes to teacher certification for several states. Alternative certification is defined by specific state programs. While it is too early to know the results of such programs, evaluation questions can be framed. WHAT IS ALTERNATIVE CERTIFICATION FOR TEACHERS? Alternative teacher certification can be distinguished from certification processes which ignore training in professional studies, such as "emergency" certification, which carries the expectation that the teacher will obtain the necessary credentials or be replaced eventually by a regularly certified person. In any discussion of alternative certification for teachers, then, it is important to define precisely what is meant by the term. WHAT ARE SOME SPECIFIC ALTERNATIVE CERTIFICATION PROGRAMS?

National board certification began as a concept to reward teaching excellence. Today, it has grown into a national system of judging superior classroom practice. But what is it like for teachers going through the national board certification process? This week, Education World explores the reality behind the rhetoric as we ask educators around the nation to describe their experiences. When Donna Morin peeked into the large red and blue box she had just received from the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards , she almost closed it up and sent it back! Inside were all the materials she would need to become a national board certified teacher mailing labels, standards for her discipline, and a notebook full of requirements. "It was quite overwhelming," the Pulaski Middle School teacher in New Britain, Connecticut, told Education World.
