Added by ConcourseConnect SystemTEACHER OF THE YEAR is a documentary film that reveals the complex reality of teaching in the 21st century and explores the forces that influence a teacher's performance for the competing needs of audiences made up of students, parents, administrators, other teachers, politicians, and the public at large.
The film emphasizes Angie Scioli's work as a performer for these varied audiences, and we document her struggles and triumphs to be a successful teacher, activist, mother, and wife. We also contend with the view of teachers shaped by seductive media experiences, which reduce teachers to the simplistic dichotomy of good or bad.
