The
authors
present
a
wonderfully
simple
idea
for
turning
a
school
into
a
learning
community.
It
is
a
powerful,
growth-oriented
strategy
for
creating
instructional
focus
in
a
school.
The book is an action-oriented game plan to improve teachers' performance--designed, initiated, and implemented by teachers. It tackles one of education's toughest issues--teacher isolation.
A refreshing dose of what the educational world (and others, too) needs for joyful accountability.
The authors present a powerful idea with the potential to transform schools by tearing down walls between teachers.
The 2+2 system fosters collegiality and contributes to professional development by reducing teacher isolation and encouraging collaboration among teachers.
Encouraging teahcers to visit each other's classrooms and create an environment of sharing and mutal trust has the potential to transform the profession.
Sharing ideas and feedback leads to teaching improvement and helps create valuable discourse on the learning process. A 2+2 program is a powerful way to change the culture of isolation. Education majors would experience a shared teaching culture--a model to emulate one day in their own classroom.
