Effective teaching and raising the collective efficacy of our teachers is a complex but critical endeavor. The New Art and Science of Teaching (NASOT) arms educators of all levels-from teachers to superintendents and principals-with tools and strategies to improve their practice. During this two-day professional development, participants will gain practical applications and strategies that they can use in the classroom to improve student achievement. Discussion and learning will focus on the importance of a common language for talking about instruction and a framework for effective teaching using the New Art and Science of Teaching framework as an example, which provides teachers with research-based strategies they can use in their classrooms.
