Great to Influential: Teacher Leaders' Roles in Supporting Instruction
Abstract
"What do we know about the characteristics of teacher leaders; the roles they undertake; and the challenges and barriers that exist to teacher leadership? In this follow-up study to our
Good to Great report, we conducted deep dive focus groups with State and National Teachers and of the Year and Finalists serving as teacher leaders to discover answers to these questions. This report concludes with specific policy recommendations for supporting teacher leadership in state and local contexts."
