Alternative Teacher Licensure

http://www.kare11.com/news/news_article.aspx?storyid=900178&catid=14

I can see where someone would see both the good and bad side of this; however, I feel that this bill can be beneficial. For someone who is older and wishes to become a teacher; this will save them time, however, the training should still be the same as it is for someone in college - it just means that the education process is not as long as someone who is going to school.

If this bill does go through, I would hope that the right types of individuals take advantage of the Alternative Teacher Licensure. I do not feel that anyone can be a teacher, it takes a certain type of individual to become a teacher and I am sure that there are some individuals out there right now who would be wonderful teachers; but, do not have the time and/or money to go back to school.
