Backes, Ben; Goldhaber, Dan – National Center for Analysis of Longitudinal Data in Education Research (CALDER), 2023
The onset of the pandemic in spring 2020 substantially disrupted routes into teaching and offered a unique opportunity to study this process with different requirements for initial entry into the classroom.

Goldhaber, Dan; Holden, Kristian L. – Phi Delta Kappan, 2021
Understanding the early teacher pipeline, how many and what types of individuals are pursuing a teaching credential, is critically important.
