It gives an insider's view of what happened, how it happened, and who made it happen. It tells why teachers in America organized into unions and became more militant in the 1960s. American teachers had been taken for granted, underappreciated, and underpaid for almost two centuries. When collective bargaining statutes were enacted in many states during the 1960s and 1970s, teachers embraced those laws with gusto and determination. In the process of doing so, they revolutionized the teaching profession and the National Education Association. This story also delves into why and how the NEA changed its philosophy, programs, and structure to accommodate the revolution from within. Overall, \u003ci\u003eThe Inside Story of the Teacher Revolution in America\u003c\/i\u003e gives insights into the character of teachers and the obstacles they have to overcome in order to do their jobs, and provides a historical background of both the value of public education to this country as well as the under valuation of teaching and teachers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Don Cameron\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1578861969\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781578861965\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e R \u0026amp; L Education\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/17\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.63lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.96h x 6.36w x 0.49d","brand":"Don Cameron","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44616687386879,"sku":"9781578861965","price":53.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8cd1a3fb-c616-4368-a2a2-1788aff5a881.jpg?v=1703021733","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-inside-story-of-the-don-cameron-9781578861965","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
