How do teachers learn? What are the implications of teacher learning (or the lack thereof) for students? What is the value of a teacher who really learns?
During the month of November, members of the CTQ Collaboratory tackled these questions and more during a round table discussion centered on the topics of professional development, personalized learning, and the role virtual collaboration plays in connecting educators.
