The host opens by asking, "What makes great teachers?" He says that there is, of course, no magic potion, but that people have studied what great teachers know about their subject and their profession, as well as what they do in the classroom. One set of standards to help guide teachers toward becoming great is that of the Interstate New Teacher Assessment and Support Consortium (INTASC). The video names the ten INTASC Standards (see Appendix 2.1).

Ann Duffy, a teacher educator at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, reflects on the importance of INTASC in teaching her education students. While DuffyÕs reference to the teacher-student relationship signifies interaction within a teacher education program at a university setting, it also applies to the teacher-student relationship within a K-12 classroom. The video portrays pre-service teachers presenting projects and discussing issues relevant to their pre-service experiences.
