Riguardo questo articolo

Neuware - 'Professional learning is vital to educators' growth and ability to create classrooms that maximize student learning. Studies indicate, however, that traditional off-site professional learning is often less effective than it can be because of the lag between passive learning and active application of the concepts. In Elevate School-Based Professional Learning, authors Joellen Killion, William A. Sommers, and Ann Delehant present a new model for continuous professional learning as part of educators' onsite, everyday school experience. The authors explain how educators can collaboratively study and solve issues that arise directly from their own schools' unique contexts and circumstances. Professional learning and skill application thus occur in tandem, benefitting both educators and students. By presenting foundational and practical knowledge backed by supporting research, Elevate School-Based Professional Learning guides readers in implementing collaborative, teacher-generated professional learning as part of everyday work and increased student learning'.
