All this information is being gathered together for a new book I am writing for Jist Publishing (Indianapolis, IN) entitled Ace Your Teacher Interview. The book is tentatively scheduled for publication in Fall 2011 - however, you will get all the information that will be in that book through this blog. It is my hope and intent to update the blog on a very regular basis so that you get the latest and most pertinent data. The blog will also be an opportunity for you to pose questions, raise issues, and voice your opinions. If there is a question or facet of the interview process you would like me to pursue - let me know. I'll get the answers directly from experts in the field and share it with all the readers of the blog. Let me know what you think - let me know what you want. This blog - and the forthcoming book - are both designed to make your interview successful and rewarding. Or, as it says at the top of the page - Get informed! Get hired! Get teaching!
