“For too long the voices of teachers have been systematically excluded from the public discourse about education. In part this book serves as an important corrective, or at least the start of one…. Our expert teachers are a resource that we should value beyond what they accomplish in the classroom, as important as that is. We need to tap their expertise and insight. We need to hear their voices.” To read Ken's full review of Teaching 2030, click here.

“Teaching 2030 delves into the myriad of issues that teachers face today and will confront in the future.  They point out how we should restructure accountability and more in order to provide our nation’s children with the education they deserve.”

- Richard Riley (former U.S. Secretary of Education)
 

“Teaching 2030 is a brilliant look at the future of teaching in America from the perspective of those who know most about what it is and should be.  Everyone who cares about teaching and learning should read this book.”

- Linda Darling-Hammond (Charles E. Ducommun Professor of Edication, Stanford University)

“This provocative work is a welcome contribution to thinking about how we can get our kids the teachers they need.”

- Frederick M. Hess (director, education policy studies, American Enterprise Institute)

“Teaching 2030 is a remarkable revolutionary picture of the future of our schools.  Berry and his colleagues reveal extraordinary opportunities to improve our schools and serve every student.”

- Dennis Van Roekel (president, National Education Association)

“This is an exciting and provocative portrait of how teaching could look in 20 years, painting a picture of a profession centered on student learning.  Barnett Berry and his colleagues make it clear that making this vision a reality is up to all of us.”

- Randi Weingarten (President, American Federation of Teachers)

“Teaching 2030 lays the groundwork for a bold vision for the teaching profession.  Barnett Berry challenges us to rethink the ‘brick-and-mortar’ education career of the past and to envision the possibilities for creating the schools we need for the future.”

- Bob Wise (former West Virginia Governor and President of the Alliance for Excellent Education)

“There is no other person in our country that captures the teacher voice like Barnett Berry.  This is a must read for all practitioners and policymakers to ensure our schools are ready to prepare our students for 21st century careers.”

- Betsy Rogers (2003 National Teacher of the Year)
