Answer to Question 1

ANSWER: Answers should focus on the extent to which the issues and trends are resulting in a greater voice for teachers in matters of their profession. This could take the form of more influence on standards for teacher preparation and certification, a greater role in mediated entry, or an enhanced decision-making role in the operations of local schools and school districts. Regardless of the sphere of influence discussed, answers should reflect an understanding that gaining a greater say in educational matters provides teachers with a more professional role and helps education become more similar to professions such as law and medicine.

Answer to Question 2

ANSWER: 1) PostWorld War II baby boomers children, 2) current work force reaching retirement age, 3) educational reform for smaller class size, preschool and increase of mathematics and science, 4) new charter schools, 5) current teachers are leaving the profession, and 6) many migrant families are entering the United States.

This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
