Quality Teaching Rounds: An Elegant Solution to Enduring Problems in Education?
Thu, April 24, 3:35 to 5:05pm MDT (3:35 to 5:05pm MDT), The Colorado Convention Center, Floor: Meeting Room Level, Room 113Session Type: Symposium
Abstract
Despite reform agendas around the world often seeking to simplify teaching, student achievement is declining, and inequities are worsening. We argue that with professional development that is challenging, critical, and psychologically safe, teachers can, and should, treat teaching as complex. Quality Teaching Rounds (QTR) provides a powerful approach to professional development that embraces such complexity and produces positive outcomes for teachers, students, schools and systems. In this symposium, we explain the theoretical underpinnings, key mechanisms and comprehensive impact gleaned from a 20-year program of research on QTR and contend that this approach provides an elegant solution to some of education’s enduring problems.
