Download or read book Teaching with Light written by Carol Pelletier Radford and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Teachers are overworked and underpaid. Most teachers choose this profession because they see it as a vocation. It is a mission to serve others. When they begin their career they often find it stressful, bureaucratic, and complicated. Many beginning teachers question why they chose this path and up to 50% leave for other careers in their first five years. Those who stay, navigate their way through the complexities of school culture, lack of resources, and challenging students. This book is about the teachers who stay in the field of education and not only survive, they thrive on the joys they find in the day to day life of an educator. This book will be an essential (and beautiful) guide that will walk teachers through ten lessons for a fulfilling, life-long career in education. Carol will equip educators with what they need to help themselves stay sustained and inspired in a job that takes immense daily courage. Carol will share some of her own stories from her career, we will ask educators in the field (and/or other Corwin authors) to submit stories for each chapter, there will be podcast content to bolster the theme of each chapter, and there will be plenty of space for interaction and reflection as teachers walk through their reading plan. Sustaining a career in education is not for the meek or faint of heart. It is for the courageous who want to fulfill their life's path. We need positive stories, practical ways to succeed, and guidance for helping teachers finding their unique roles as educators. This reflective and inspirational guide will make those roles clear and accessible and will inspire our next generation of teachers to "stay" in teaching and contribute to the profession in a way that uses their unique skills"--

Download or read book Buddha in the Classroom written by Donna Quesada and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2011-05-11 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Donna Quesada had been teaching for about a dozen years when the first signs of burnout hit her. Rather than give into her frustration, she reached for Buddha’s teachings—the Zen wisdom that formed the basis of her own longtime spiritual practice. She survived the semester and gradually rediscovered the joy of teaching that had been progressively declining. In this wonderful book, she shares the lessons she learned—lessons that reveal time and again: No matter the situation, it’s always about getting your head in the right place first. Resolution begins in our own minds. Some days, some semesters, and even some years will be more challenging and more wearisome than others, she warns. But in Buddha in the Classroom, Quesada offers a lasting source of encouragement and inspiration. Although the book draws from Eastern teachings, the wisdom is for everyone, regardless of personal background, creed, or faith. With elements of The Last Lecture as well as Chicken Soup for the Teacher’s Soul, this is the perfect gift for teachers—but also for anyone needing inspiration.
