This session will be a workshop for those interested in creating
critical conversations with colleagues, students, and concerned citizens on the use of social media to discuss issues of race, class, gender, and other critical conversations.
Additionally, through
critical conversations and dialogue
with colleagues in the HGSE community, I have realized how imperative it is to continue to deconstruct traditional systems of education in order to further understand how the development of identity (whether human, institutional, or organizational) is imperative for creating lasting change.
Functions The teacher leader: a) Increases the capacity of
colleagues to identify and use multiple assessment tools aligned to state and local standards; b) Collaborates
with colleagues in the design, implementation, scoring, and interpretation of student data to improve educational practice and student learning; c) Creates a climate of trust and
critical reflection in order to engage
colleagues in challenging
conversations about student learning data that lead to solutions to identified issues; and d) Works
with colleagues to use assessment and data findings to promote changes in instructional practices or organizational structures to improve student learning.
