Abstract

This is a study of 1,600 student teach ers of the four municipal colleges of New York City with respect to the char acteristics of their "ideal" teaching situa tion. The authors believe that the dif ferences between the actual jobs avail able and these ideal jobs may have some influence on the high rate at which young teachers leave the profession. They argue that "It is the duty of teacher training institutions to apprise our future teachers of the conditions under which they will probably work after graduation, and to create in the students some of the missionary spirit that is undoubtedly a necessary ingre dient of effective teaching."
