At a time when schools - and teachers- are under seige, why not celebrate the very best teachers we have? That's exactly what the Toronto Sun has been doing since 1985, when it launched its "Teacher of the Year" awards. Each year, students, parents and fellow educators are invited to nominate their favourite teacher.
In Teachers, the authors have selected the best of the best to create a book full of practical ideas that will help teachers become more flexible, informed, accountable and relevant.
Teachers is must reading for anyone looking for mentors in the rapidly changing world of education: after all, what teachers do today will have an enormous impact on the future.
