The Academy
is a two-year seminar series designed to develop teacher leaders. It is the first level of engagement in the Galileo consortium. The curriculum addresses educational and leadership issues and themes. Instructional strategies are based on principles of collaboration, inquiry, problem-solving, reflection, informational systems and technology. Teacher leaders learn from national experts, videos, case studies, dialogues, field investigations, team building, study groups, readings, reflective journaling, and action research. This capacity-building curriculum focuses on developing communities of learners and leaders who collaborate to renew organizations and ensure learning for all. Academy participants assess their own learning and make contributions to their organizations and the education profession. |
