The PLC Book
About this book
The secret to your PLC's success? You.
Commitment to improving student outcomes is a natural part of being a teacher. So when you bring your experience, skills, and questions to a professional learning community, you help shape the future of the teamāand that makes all the difference for your students.
Unlike other PLC resources, this book isn't just for leadersāit's designed to help every member of the team be a driving force for success. With it, you'll work together to
- Give voice to important issues and dilemmas
- Decide where to focus your work
- Develop and implement a plan for gaining insight into your area of focus
- Take action based on individual and collective learning
- Share results with others outside the PLC
Successful PLCs buzz with a collaborative energy that comes from the engagement of teachers. With this guide, you'll make the most of your contributions.
