Creating a World of Wonder Through
School-Based Professional Learning
Dear Educator:
The National Staff Development Council knows that the contribution of teacher leaders is essential if all teachers in all schools are to experience high-quality professional learning as part of their daily work.
Teacher leadership is at the heart of many school and school system improvement efforts. No matter what their job title or role — literacy or mathematics coaches, instructional coaches, or mentors, to name just a few — we know that the work of these individuals is vitally important to achieving high levels of learning for all students. That’s why NSDC invites teacher
leaders and those who support them to attend its 4th Annual Summer Conference July 13-16 in Orlando, FL.
With the support of local school systems and national teacher organizations, we are planning a conference to provide teacher leaders and administrators with valuable tools to bring the most powerful forms of professional learning to all the teachers with whom they work.
At this conference, school-based staff developers will learn from both the outstanding and innovative work of their peers and the perspectives of national leaders. Participants will become more skillful in assisting their colleagues in data-driven decision making and in planning, implementing, and assessing the impact of their lessons. In addition, participants will more deeply understand the attributes of high-functioning school teams and learning communities and the actions they can take as leaders in their settings to make such collaboration a reality.
We look forward to meeting you in Orlando.
| Sincerely, |
| Karen Dyer – NSDC President |
| Stephanie Hirsh – NSDC Executive Director |
