Re-engineering the English Classroom, or toward a More Supple Teaching Model
Hill, Jeremiah
English Journal, v97 n2 p67-70 Nov 2007
Based on the various metaphors we use to describe the work of teaching, high school teacher Jeremiah Hill articulates a new model--the teacher as creative professional. Hill urges educators to transform the "culture of teaching" by moving away from traditional expectations for classes and embracing connections that we discover among disciplines.
