Hi! I know on and off over the past year, we've had a number of discussions over how teaching in general and middle schools in particular are presented in the news, and I've sensed a fair amount of frustration from a number of us (including myself). So...
There's a website that came through in today's PEN NewsBlast about what journalists should look for in a classroom; they interviewed a number of teachers and videotaped their response to the prompt "What would you look for in a classroom as proof of great teaching?"
