註釋Based on the author's experiences as parents, teacher, economist, and school board member, this book is for teachers, parents, and administrators about the most fundamental, basic element in any good school, the time of a good teacher. Teacher Time's message is simple. American students need more of each teacher's time. Teachers need more time to spend on each student, time to plan, grade papers and make decisions about resources. America must adopt and pay for the model used for public schools in the rest of the developed world, where teachers teach many less class hours. In Teacher Time, classroom stories reveal the nature of the American School, the teacher's job, how little time a teacher has for each child, and how school management affects the quality of the teacher's time with students. A "homework" section helps readers take the book into their school and school district, to take steps toward providing more quality teacher time for each child in America. (The book's) cogent argument and evidence for the centrality of teachers and the time they must have should give readers pause as they listen to the current debate over high-stakes testing, social promotion, and accountability. Larry Cuban, Stanford University.
