[Ch IV – Conclusions and Recommendations] This study was undertaken to determine as far as possible:

(1) the reasons which teen-agers and others have for not looking toward teaching as an appealing career,
(2) the major reasons teen-agers give for wanting to become teachers,
(3) changes which these same students would make to enhance the appeal of teaching, and
(4) the place which the classroom teacher occupies in the effective recruitment process.

Data which was collected from two sources has been used in developing the conclusions of this study. The sources of data were: a review of current literature dealing with the problem, and information provided from a survey of the students of seven senior academies of the Columbia Union Conference of Seventh-day Adventists.
