Manage episode 324731591 series 3266938
Listen to Steve Ventura share the background of Achievement Teams and the four-step meeting protocol.
This framework provides a structure for teachers to accurately reflect on teaching between pre/post assessments while identifying areas of student needs. Next, teams decide on the very best instructional approaches to address those needs. When schools and school systems de-emphasize individual practice and promote collective ability, teams of educators continuously reflect on and improve their practice, and as a result, have a greater impact on student learning.
