See our links for K-12 and University Level Teaching Abroad Teachers have some of the best opportunities of any profession for working abroad. To better understand these, it is useful to distinguish among three main types of teaching, each of which represents a different labor market in which different credentials are needed. TEACHING ENGLISH ABROAD English is the new "lingua franca" worldwide for commerce, diplomacy, technology and higher education. As a result, there are widespread opportunities for native speakers of English to teach English abroad. Teaching English as a Foreign (or Second) Language is known by many acronyms, including TEFL, TESL, EFL, ESL, or even TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages). Since teaching is usually done in English, exposure to the local language and culture will be on one's own time.

87. Impact: Paraeducator Certification: Iowa's System Paraeducator certification iowa’s System. By Susan Simon During the 1990s stakeholders across the state – paraeducators, teachers, administrators, http://ici.umn.edu/products/impact/152/prof1.html

Previous Article Next Article By Susan Simon Awareness In the early 1990s, awareness of paraeducator issues in Iowa was limited. Some individuals expressed concerns about the changing role of paraeducators. There were pockets of uncoordinated activity. Several area education agencies, local school districts, and community colleges provided training. As the numbers of paraeducators grew and their assignments changed from working primarily in special education settings to working increasingly in general education classes, more administrators and parents became aware of the critical importance of paraeducators. Deborah Hansen, a consultant for the Iowa Department of Education, provided special leadership and advocacy within the department and throughout the state for paraeducator training and recognition. She provided technical assistance to local and area education agencies and community colleges, held forums for discussions, created pilot projects, and supported sharing of materials and training techniques in statewide and regional conferences. She also spoke to policymakers. Needs Assessment In 1995, the Iowa Department of Education conducted focus group meetings surveying paraeducators, general and special education teachers, administrators, support and related services personnel, and parents. The groups represented individuals from rural and urban areas in a variety of educational settings across Iowa. According to the

Report from the Committee on School Bands Teacher Shortages An Old Issue, A New Face Music Mentors of Iowa Report from the Committee on School Bands March 2001 William A. Gora, Chair Our report for the 2001 meeting is a bit “light” in comparison to many of the previous year’s efforts. Could it be that those issues that were changing secondary education in the United States (the use of time, scheduling designs, public perceptions, political perceptions) at such a rapid rate have simply been implemented or discarded? And we, professional music educators, have once again adapted and remained successful or “taken it on the chin” depending upon how skilled we were at communicating and how well we taught our subject. Our survival depended on the perceptions of the public and of those in charge of making the decisions. The education of young people in America is now, however, based upon state mandated end of course tests, the normal array of nationally standardized tests and the pressure placed on every school administrator for their school to “show” well. The incentives and the consequences are very clear. Unfortunately these have become “solutions dujour ” generated by politicians for political purposes.
