From the author:“Hello future Alaska teachers! I have more than 25 years of teaching experience, including teaching in rural, remote Alaska. Please trust me when I say that living in rural Alaska requires a very unique skill set. Almost every part of your life – your housing, your shopping, your clothing, your healthcare – will be different from what you've experienced in other parts of the country.“I wrote this book to help you make a smooth transition to rural Alaska teaching. You'll learn how to buy food when the nearest grocery store is 100 miles away. You'll learn what clothes you'll need to stay warm and dry when the temperature dips below zero. I share a proven way for transporting your clothes and household goods to remote Alaska. Do you know the important questions to ask a school district recruiter before signing the contract?“This is the book that I was looking for when I first moved to rural Alaska. I didn't find it, so I decided to write it myself! Now, you can learn from my experience. Best wishes.” --Wally RoseNote: Wally Rose is a pseudonym used by an Alaska teacher who wishes to maintain his privacy.

Center for Cross-Cultural Studies and published by University of Alaska Press. This book was released on 1989-01-01 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using a "teaching case" format, this report tells the story of a married couple, Caroline and Rick, who travel to a village school in rural Alaska for their student teaching experience. Although each student teacher engages in innovative teaching practices, the faculty of the school perceives them to lack dedication to the teaching profession. The principal and cooperating teachers do not give them positive recommendations and they have trouble finding teaching positions the following year. Part I of the case study provides background and a context for the story. Part II presents the story first from Caroline's viewpoint, and then from Rick's viewpoint. Discussion questions at the end of Part II raise issues presented in the case such as the school culture, attitude of a student teacher, and the format of student teaching experiences. Appendix A is an open letter to student teachers written by one of Rick's cooperating teachers. The university supervisor discusses his view of the case in Appendix B. (KS)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The social and professional lives of rural Alaskan school teachers are unique. They live in an isolated environment and interact with students and community members from the position of a member of a 'sub-cultural', or better, of a "co-cultural" group member. This work examines the recruitment and training practices of rural Alaskan school districts with regard to teachers from the Lower 48, the expectancies constructed by and for teachers in these practices, and how violations of these expectancies affect teacher's social and professional lives in rural Alaskan villages. Qualitative conversational interviews were conducted with 3 administrators currently working in rural Alaskan districts, and 5 teachers who came to teach in rural Alaska from the Lower 48. A thematic analysis produced 13 emergent themes. Several communicative strategies typical of co-cultural group members (Orbe, 1998) were identified, indicating the participants' positions as members of a co-cultural group. A critical comparison of the way in which teachers and administrators affected one another's experiences in rural Alaska revealed that during recruitment sessions both administrators and teachers enacted the position of members of the dominant U.S. culture. However, during the first training sessions for new teachers, administrators shifted their position to co-cultural members. Working within the dominant Alaskan Native culture the administrators worked to prepare teachers for their new societal position as a member of a co-cultural group in rural Alaska"--Leaf iii.

This book was released on 2000 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The purpose of this study was to identify successful adaptation strategies used by non-native educators who have been employed in rural Alaska schools for more than one year and who are still working in rural Alaska schools. A compilation of these strategies for use by educators arriving from the lower 48 might increase their longevity and provide continuity for the students. To explore what adaptation problems were anticipated and how difficult they actually were for educators when they arrived in the rural villages of Alaska a survey of superintendants, principals, and teachers was conducted. A survey instrument developed by the researcher was faxed to 466 teachers, 67 principals, and 26 superintendents. The survey was designed to generate information relevant to eight research questions covering preparation, strategies, and recommendations. The results indicated that it is important for new educators to find a mentor and network with other educators, and to have a large repertoire of knowledge before arriving. A key finding of the study was that native educators indicated that they could be a part of a mentoring program for new educators. Based on this study it is recommended that the Alaska Department of Education, the Alaska Teacher Placement Office, school districts, administration, and school staff take a hands-on approach to support new arrivals in the rural Alaska Schools"--Leaf [vii].
