Teacher Growth and Improvement

At our beginning of year inservice, I shared some assumptions I formed as a result of researching teacher growth and improvement over the summer.

• Good Teaching REALLY Matters
• Teaching is an Incredibly Complex Activity (It is an Art and a Science)
• Good Teachers are Already Looking to Improve
• Some Practices are Better and More Effective Than Others

5 domains were introduced as a way of thinking about the art and science of teaching at Marist.  They can also help serve as a shared language of teaching and learning.

Future posts will look more closely at the categories and elements of the Instructional Methods and Practices Domain.
