Professional Learning Resource

The close study of one’s practice to generate knowledge useful to oneself and others is an important part of developing one’s teacher leadership practice. Building on Understanding Your System Through the Activity System Framework, this 40-minute data protocol is designed for use with others and supports educators in analyzing their systems and identifying leverage points for meaningful change in their contexts.

What does teacher sustainability really look, feel and sound like in practice? How can we encourage our colleagues to reflect on this topic? We’ve bundled four articles published in Kaleidoscope about teacher sustainability and prepared thought-provoking ways to deepen your engagement with the material in various sized groups.

Writing an article can feel daunting when staring at a blank page, but teachers routinely share their knowledge with colleagues by giving presentations at their schools and other professional conferences. This resource offers a framework for creating a manuscript from a previously developed presentation.

In this webinar, we describe how collaborative practitioner inquiry can be used to redesign classroom instruction.

Teacher leaders seek to make a difference beyond their classrooms, but school systems are complex and ever-changing. This resource introduces the Activity System Framework to help teachers map, analyze, and better understand their systems—whether a classroom, department, or committee—so they can identify leverage points for meaningful change.
