“Finally a book about teaching that tells it like it is,” NEA Today said about Michael Gose’s first edition, What It Means to Be a Teacher. The second edition continues the stories that capture the meaning of teaching and now looks back with commentary on how those tales also work as parables. In the spirit of Thomas Paine, this second edition uses “Common Sense” to tell what is really going on with students, teachers, and schools. (Hint: the reality is actually a lot more optimistic than commonly portrayed in the media.)
Michael D. Gose, Ph.D. has taught at the elementary, secondary, and university levels. He has been a professor at Pepperdine University, teaching curriculum and methods, film, and the Great Books Colloquium since 1980.
