| Overview: | |||||||||
| You have just been appointed grade level leader or head of department. Congratulations!! How will you navigate relationships as a new leader? How will you facilitate team meetings to focus on impacting and improving student learning and teacher practice? Chapters international and the International School of Luxembourg Learning Loft present a complimentary two day webinar titled Welcome to Teacher Leadership: A Conversation, "Your First Days". Teachers leaders can have a profound impact on moving an educational institution forward. As Michael Iannini stated in his book, Hidden in Plain Sight, Realising the Potential of Middle Leaders, “Teacher - leaders, coordinators, department heads and vice principals are the heart of the school. They are the true change agents and will be the most effective tool in ensuring transformative and sustained change.” To create this change, teacher leaders need to develop a toolkit of “best practices” to facilitate discussions and learning experiences that foster thinking and equitable participation from all team members. This two day complimentary webinar will provide participants a set of tools to embrace the new role as a teacher leader. Sessions will be interactive which include break out rooms and routines to activate the voices of all the participants. |
