Answer to Question 1

ANSWER: The issues include reading, urban education, violence on television, combating censorship, quality of children's programs, child nutrition, sex education, AIDS education, drug abuse prevention, and improving school discipline.

Answer to Question 2

ANSWER: Examples might include using college-educated retirees, people seeking second careers, or industrial personnel. Any of these procedures would probably reduce the professional status of teachers, because teachers would not be involved in selecting the criteria, procedures, or personnel. Moreover, alternative certification undermines the traditional training that leads to certification.
