There is wide agreement that the best teacher development is informal, diverse, democratic, school-based, and continuous. The best programs ignite and sustain teachers′ excitement in learning, growing, and changing their classroom practices. Drago-Severson presents case studies from 25 diverse schools across the U.S. and examines strategies that help shape a school climate of teacher support, growth, and learning. In addition, she suggests many creative solutions to secure any resources needed to implement this learning-oriented professional growth model.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConcepts covered in \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eHelping Teachers Learn \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003einclude:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA new model of learning-oriented leadership that can be tailored to particular settings or individuals \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdult learning principles that inform teacher growth and development, and why they are essential to effective teacher development programs \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Four Pillars: teaming, providing leadership roles, engaging in collegial inquiry, and mentoring \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReal-world examples of principals sharing leadership, building community, and managing change\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eEnhance your professional development model to better support teacher growth and development, as well as your own self-development as a principal.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SAGE Publications Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54259437994328,"sku":"9780761939672","price":40.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780761939672_b1d8c4ba-56ed-4e9a-b0e3-7c7a7b5f3fad.jpg?v=1778820363","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/helping-teachers-learn","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
