Advice from the Field
PS 154 Teachers Study Groups - December 20, 2007
Find out interests of teachers and their pressing concerns and try to form study groups around getting smarter and finding solutions.
Choice matters so try to give teachers their choice.
Keep groups small and try to match teachers by personality, learning style etc.
Arrange common preps or lunchtimes for teachers to follow up their conversations.
Make an agenda for between sessions which details what teachers can do to move the work forward.
Talking is most important-lots of time needs to be devoted to quality conversations. Respectful disagreements can often promote learning.
