The Alternative: A Teacher's Story and Commentary

by Galen Leonhardy

In terms of audience, this work can be read by most anyone interested in the realities of teaching, though it is mostly within the scope of English education. Special education teachers, educational administrators, critical theorists, and those studying alternative schools and rural education might find interest in the narrative as well as the subsequent contemplations on the practice of teaching. Beyond being an artifact, a documentary of a time and place and perspective, this text is, ultimately, a source for future teachers, who might be encouraged to establish a reflective, process-oriented theory of teaching and a deepened sense of professionalism through critique of the thoughts and actions presented.
