Alternative Teacher License

http://www.kare11.com/news/news_article.aspx?storyid=900178

After reading the article about alternative teacher license article I feel this could be a good possibility in some aspects. For example, it will help schools finded teachers for areas that need help such as science and math. I'm sure some of the alternative license teachers will be very good at teaching and there will also be some that are duds.  On the other hand I don't feel the alternative license would be a good idea for Special Education.  A person getting a four year degree in Special Education will learn many things that a person of a different degree wouldn't know.  I do have some concerns also.  Will the teachers that get the alternative license be truly qualified for teaching?
