Book excerpt: Responding to two national reports on education: The Carnegie Forum on Education and the Economy's A Nation Prepared, and Tomorrow's Teachers, a report of the Holmes group, 12 American educators present their views on the intellectual, practical, and normative knowledge essential to the education of middle school and secondary school teachers. They recommend specific knowledge bases as most essential to the revitalization and professionalization of teaching. They call for reforms that would alter the underlying strategy and structure of professional schools of education, including reallocation of faculty and staff, increased research efforts, and discovering organizational mechanisms for academic integration.
