Might we want to use this definition for the EdTeach mini cadre?
The term professional learning community describes a collegial group
of administrators and school staff who are united in their commitment to student
learning. They share a vision, work and learn collaboratively, visit and review
other classrooms, and participate in decision making (Hord, 1997b). The benefits
to the staff and students include a reduced isolation of teachers, better informed
and committed teachers, and academic gains for students. Hord (1997b) notes,
"As an organizational arrangement, the professional learning community is seen
as a powerful staff-development approach and a potent strategy for school change
and improvement."
