Communication

In this webinar, Troen and Boles demonstrate how schools can transform their teams into more effective learning communities that foster teacher leadership. The benefits of successful teacher teams include: Improved performance for both teachers and students; Meaningful professional development; Group adoption of a new curriculum; Shared insights into student work; Better classroom management; Support for new teachers; New roles for teacher leaders; Opportunities for mentor support. Considered authorities on the subjects of teacher education, teacher leadership, and professional development schools, Troen and Boles deliver workshops on Teacher Teams and Teacher Leadership, speak at conferences and seminars, and regularly consult to schools and school districts in the United States and internationally. As classroom teachers, they founded one of the nation’s first professional development schools to link colleges and public schools in partnerships for the preservice education of teachers as well as the ongoing professional development of veteran teachers.
