- Summary:
-
Research concerning teacher readership characteristics--the quality, quantity, and variety of leisure and professional reading--indicates that teachers' reading attitudes and interests reflect a disinterest in social issues as well as in professional literature. As far as book reading is concerned, research has revealed that on the average teachers do read more than the public. However, factors detrimental to teacher readership exist, including the teacher's job, the grading of student papers, housework, television viewing for relaxation, and children. Furthermore, there is evidence that some teachers do have reading difficulties. Thus, readership research involves the major implication that more stringent screening procedures are necessary in admitting students to teacher training, an issue that the total university should face in assessing its academic influence during a student's formative training years. (An annotated bibliography is included.) (JM)
