Reading the interesting discussion about reform in the public school
system, I found myself becoming somewhat uneasy about the missing voices in
this discussion: the teachers in those public schools, or charter schools,
or private schools, or parochial schools. So, I decided it was time to
reread an article entitled" Return to the chalk face". It was an article
written by an education "professor" who decided to spend one of his
sabbaticals immersing himself in the secondary school culture by actually
teaching in it full time for a year.

Unfortunately, I find that I have lost my copy of this article that was
originally published a very long time back, possibly in the late seventies
or early eighties. Does anyone in our group know of this article, and can
anyone provide a reference?
