SUMMARY

Celebrating 10 Years of The Courage to TeachI am a teacher at heart, and there are moments in the classroom when I can hardly hold the joy. . . . But at other moments, the classroom is so lifeless or painful or confused-and I am so powerless to do anything about it-that my claim to be a teacher seems a transparent sham. . . . If you are a teacher who never has bad days, or who has them but does not care, this book is not for you. This book is for teachers who have good days and bad, and whose bad days bring the suffering that comes only from something one loves. It is for teachers who refuse to harden their hearts because they love learners, learning, and the teaching life. -From the IntroductionToday, ten years after the publication of The Courage to Teach, I am more hopeful than ever about the potential for education reform because this book has helped me meet so many people who care passionately about teaching and learning and are willing to act on their passion. "Exploring the inner landscape of a teacher's life" allows us to return, grounded and renewed, to the outer landscape of our lives. Having taken heart in the work to which we are called, we can give heart once again to our students, our colleagues, our schools, and our world-a world where heartlessness yields only to gifts and graces that come from within. -Adapted from the Foreword to the 10th Anniversary EditionCD included with exclusive conversation with Parker J. Palmer about the Courage to Teach Movement - past, present, and future.Palmer, Parker J. is the author of 'Courage to Teach Exploring the Inner Landscape of a Teacher's Life, 10th Anniversary Edition', published 2007 under ISBN 9780787996864 and ISBN 0787996866.
