In spite of millions of dollars spent on professional development
for teachers, the dream of providing every child with the great
teacher they deserve always seems just out of reach. With each new
education product and innovation promising to transform teaching
and learning, the myth of a silver bullet to cure education's ills
is perpetuated. But the silver bullet is already in the classroom:
the teacher. Every teacher has the ability to transform their
practice if he or she is willing to look inside themselves to make
the changes necessary. By using methods described inNavigating the
Labyrinth: Teacher Empowerment Through Instructional Leadership,
educators can establish a metacognitive process for how they
recognize what beliefs they have about how students learn, how they
approach research so that it drives instructional decisions, and
how they design and deliver instruction that ensures student
learning at the highest level. This process is the foundation of
effective pedagogy. Daily practice of these methods can establish a
standard of professionalism that inoculates teachers against the
everchanging "shiny things" in the profession and enable them to
become strong instructional leaders.
