Interesting article on the current state of educating teachers and how teacher training programs are inadequate and some possible ways in which to correct them. One of the underlying points is that merit pay and other bonuses won't necessarily do you any good if you don't know how to improve your teaching.

I cross-posted this in the Current Events folder, because I figured it's relevant to both and that the discussions would focus on different things.
