Ed. Magazine A to B: Why They Got Into Education Posted January 21, 2020 By Ed. Magazine Several years ago, in Ed. magazine, we ran a series called “A to B: Why I Got Into Education.” For the series, we asked students and alumni to write about someone or something that influenced their decision to become educators.
