Burned Out Teachers

NPR's Claudio Sanchez reports on a program intended to help teachers regain a passion for their profession. The North Carolina Center for the Advancement of Teaching takes groups into the Great Smoky Mountains, away from the clamor and stress of the classroom and school politics, to encourage them to remember why they started teaching in the first place.
