A film worth checking out...

In EDCI 773 today, our professor Jason Price showed us some clips from a documentary called "The First Year", which follows the journey of five new teachers in the Los Angeles school system.




A still from "The First Year"

We only saw snippets, but in that short time I was both shocked and saddened to witness what kinds of issues these new teachers had to deal with in their classrooms and schools. We may experience things quite similar- so it's worth checking it out! From what I saw, it looked like a really interesting and thought-provoking documentary.  I will link the official website here if you'd like to read more about the film, but you can also find the entire documentary on google video if you search the title.
