We Want Your Stories on Learning Teams!

The learning teams concept has been receiving quite the press coverage lately - The New York Times, USA Today, Encore.org - just to name a few.

But we want to learn more about how schools are being staffed in new ways! Whether it's with retired teachers, teacher candidates working in a residency type program, experts from the broader workforce, or students helping teachers with their curriculum and technology!

We want you to share your story! We are looking to highlight some examples of learning teams that will be used as case studies in our research. If chosen, we will work with you to go in depth on how your learning team works and the effects it has on student learning in the 21st Century.

  1. The Global Challenge Award (www.globalchallengeaward.org) staffs an after-school program with recently graduated seniors, scientists and other subject area experts, parents, and the project staff. The curriculum areas addressed by the program includes the acquisition and use of 21st C. skills including global collaboration in problem-solving teams, leadership, entreprenuership, and the science, economics, and social issues involved in addressing global warming and inventing the future of energy.
