Another Great Teacher Portrait in a Newspaper
Once again our friend, Peter Smagorinsky, University of Georgia Professor of Education, has written another great teacher portrait in a newspaper, the Atlanta Journal Constitution. Education reporter Maureen Downey shepherds these pieces into the paper.
This represents an excellent solution to the hesitancy of many teachers to write about their own wonderful classrooms. So fellow university academics reading this: get your pens out now. And also make some phone calls to local news reporters to find one who will aid your publication process.
