Introduction to Teaching: Becoming a Professional, the best-selling, case-based text for beginning education students, provides a look at the real world of students, teachers, classrooms, and schools. Authentic case studies provide a framework for chapter discussions and show how chapter topics relate to the real world of teaching. New guided learning features maximize your learning and exploration of teaching.

 

Three themes throughout this text–Professionalism, Diversity, and Reform–will help you decide if teaching is the right career for you as you learn about students in our ever-changing diverse society, read how reform impacts education, and acquire professional knowledge.
