There are those in the educational conversation who would like to hear less from teachers, leaving deliberations about teaching and learning to "experts" outside the classroom. I hate to see them get their way. Instead, I imagine what is possible when we as a profession find ways to speak about and for ourselves. I hope we will continue the fine tradition of teachers writing in the past 100 years of English Journal, building a vision of English teaching and learning informed from within the classroom."
