Teacher Certification and potential to become a teacher of mathematics. will be made available to Missourihigher education institutions offering certification in middle http://www.teachmathmissouri.org/teacher/letter.htm
Extractions: January 15, 2002 Dear Missouri Mathematics Educator: Greetings from mathematics and mathematics education faculty of institutions of higher education throughout Missouri! This letter is a request for your assistance. The teaching profession has reached a time of critical shortage. Many current teachers are reaching retirement age, and we see fewer certificates issued to new educators every year. Mathematics education is among the areas hardest hit by this shortage. In 2001, all Missouri higher education institutions combined graduated less than 100 middle and/or secondary mathematics teacher candidates. Last year more than 400 jobs were posted for mathematics teachers in Missouri. We know one of the strongest factors influencing young people to become a teacher is the encouragement of teachers they had in elementary, middle and secondary school. As a teacher, you are in a unique position to inform them about teaching as a career-its rewards as well as its challenges. We hope this letter will be the first step in an ongoing effort to encourage high school students with solid skills in mathematics to consider mathematics teaching as a career. Thanks for your help in spreading the word. If you have any questions about this request, or any suggestions for increasing interest in a career as a mathematics teacher, please let us know.
