- W82723193 abstract "Perspectives Over the last three decades, the educational research community has come to see that the of becoming a teacher is situated autobiographically in the context of peoples' lives (Costigan & Crocco, 2004; Goodson & Hargreaves, 1996; Hubermann, 1993; Levin, 2003). The use of narrative and ethnographic methodology has become central to understanding how new teachers come to understand themselves as teachers, become socialized into the profession, and come to understand the teaching craft (Zeichner, Tabachnik, & Densmore, 1987). Increasingly, attention has been paid to the narratives teachers create in their early years, in order to better understand the patterns of thinking by which they begin to develop as teachers (Clark, 2001; Costigan, 2004; Rust, 1999). Put simply, who teachers are, what they think, how they feel, the patterns of how they develop (Hollingsworth, 1989), as well as their shifting centers of foci and attention (Rust & Orland, 2001), matter a great deal in understanding how teachers come to identify with, and become socialized into, teaching. This research is also situated in the political reality of a scarcity of teachers, one that is particularly acute in poor, urban school systems. Educational researchers have come to see that the teacher turnover is actually an exodus of certified teachers and that quality of life issues may be a contributing factor in most new teachers leaving within two years of beginning teaching (AACTE, 2002; Voke, 2002; Ingersoll, 2002). There is some evidence that this exodus is caused by the intensification (Hargreaves, 2000) of the teaching profession caused by increased accountability and high-stakes testing. Nearly 50 percent of teachers are leaving the profession in their first few years of teaching because of what might be called quality-of-life issues (Park, 2003) which include poor working conditions, lack of autonomy in teaching (Claycomb, 2002), limited input into school decision-making (Gordon, 2003), increased accountability, and high-stakes testing (Costigan & Crocco, 2004; Wright, 2002). This study focuses on three new teachers, Arnie, Andrea, and Frank, who are New York City Teaching Fellows (NYCTF), a program of alternative teacher recruitment and certification that is in its third year at a urban public college in New York City. This study focuses on just three of the Fellows in order to have a more intense look into the thinking of new teachers who have made a commitment to teach in poor urban schools for two years and who are now choosing to remain urban teachers, to leave to teach in the wealthier suburbs, or to leave teaching altogether. The narratives of Arnie, Andrea, and Frank are grounded in three years of continuing research, using interviews and group discussions with a cohort of Fellows to attempt to understand the patterns of thinking of new teachers who are enrolled in a program of rapid certification through full-time teaching and reduced educational coursework (Costigan, 2004). Methodology and Data Sources Research began in Summer 2001, when two investigators and several research assistants located at a public university focused on 38 Fellows who were enrolled in the same education classes and who were assigned to teach literacy programs in elementary and middle schools in adjacent neighborhoods of New York City. These neighborhoods contained many housing projects inhabited primarily by African Americans, as well as by Caribbean and South American immigrants. These areas have high incidences of poverty, crime, gang violence, and drug abuse. Over the summer and the first year, two principal researchers and two research assistants regularly read the daily journals of these 38 Fellows, which contained both guided entries about teaching, and unguided diary entries about their on-going experiences. The researchers noted themes, or process codes (Bogdan & Biklen, 1992), common in the journals, and over their first year of the participants' teaching they conducted nine hour-long individual interviews with Fellows whose journals were considered particularly rich in emerging themes. …" @default.
