I know it's way too early to start talking about jobs in the 05-06 school year, but I teach in a very rural school in NE Iowa and have decided that this just isn't the place for me (extremely conservation to the point of being just plain rude at times). I'm looking to stay in NE Iowa, just move a little closer to the W'loo, Cedar Rapids, Iowa City areas, not right into them, as my family enjoys smaller schools too much. So, what are the outlooks for next year? And my question is, would you try to change jobs right now knowing the economy is still not the best here?

The Cultural Services of the French Embassy in the United States and the University of Wisconsin are pleased to announce the opening of a Resource Center for French teachers in Madison.
A collaborative effort of the Embassy and UW-Madison, FRANCE SYNERGIES is based on the belief that speaking a foreign language and opening up to other cultures are indispensable tools for future generations to understand the diverse and global world they live in, and to achieve success in it. The Center promotes educational and cultural relationships with France, encourages use of the best pedagogical practices, and disseminates innovative curricular models and material for the teaching of French at all levels in the State of Wisconsin and throughout the Midwest.

FRANCE SYNERGIES publishes SYNERGIES FLE, an e-journal on all aspects of the teaching of French as a foreign language and a space for exchanges between teachers and teachers-in-training. Contributions of all formats and sizes are welcome either in French or in English. The journal is particularly interested in exploring the potential of electronic publication in the promotion of French language education. The first issue will be released in Spring 2005.

Click on the Survey Section and proceed to take the online survey. Our goal with this research study is to find answers as to why teachers stay in education for more than twenty years.
Your assistance is greatly appreciated. Thank You.
Due to recent developments, the Baldwin Wallace College Research Team has decided to expand our research study. The original concept of the study was to find answers as to why secondary educators stay in the teaching field for more than 20 years. However, due to the overwhelming response from participants and observers of the study, a new more significant development has revealed itself. Our research team is now progressively moving towards the development of a significant grounded theory for a qualitative-quantitative study. More details on this new development will be shared in the upcoming weeks on our website.
Our research team is still accepting surveys from Secondary Teachers with more than 20 + years of experience. The data collected thus far, and in the future will be a factor in the overall study. The deadline for the completion of our online survey is November 4, 2004. I urge any secondary teacher with 20 + yrs of experience to take the survey. The survey consists of ten questions and no personal data has to be given. The data from the survey is directly sent to the researchers. The survey can be taken in eight different languages included English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, German, Japanese, and Chinese.
Come join us. Be a part of educational research history. Let your voice be heard along with the many teachers from around the world who have participated. Thank You.
