Abstract: The U.S. Department of Education's "back to the basics" thrust of the 1980s took a terrible toll on enrollments for those teaching in the "practical arts." So, in the face of declining enrollments, angry employers wanting more program graduates, and a concerned advisory council, technology teachers must go on television and express their excitement for what they believe in: their subject area and the students in it. In this article, the author discusses the best ways to ensure teachers' acceptance for an appearance in a television interview. He also presents a checklist of important points for teachers to consider as they prepare for their television interview.
