Adventures of a new teacher

by Stephanie Chasteen on September 22, 2008

There’s always a lot to learn when you start teaching.  But this new teacher’s story was particularly striking to me.  When she just started teaching, she was fresh out of the Peace Corps in West Africa, and this left her little prepared to teach chemistry in a portable classroom with, among other things, no proper way to store lab chemicals.  Listen to this new teacher’s story (“Huh?”) in the latest episode of my Science Teaching Tips podcast.
