Blogical Discussion (6-A-2)

October 22, 2007




Last week Deb added some links on Educational Reform to our wiki project and one of them got me thinking about teachers and leadership. The link to a blog by Neil Rochelle referred to some questions about teacher leaders, specifically the questions asked by Sheryl Nussbaum-Beach in February of 2007.  

Below I have paraphrased Nussbaum-Beach’s four questions and targeted them more specifically to you – my classmates, setting them within the context of our work on the Read/Write Web.

  • Do you feel your responsibility to act as a leader has increased as your understanding of the Read/Write Web has developed?
  • Do the new skills that we are acquiring make us “teacher leaders by default?”
  • What role does Web 2.0 play in the role of a teacher leader?
  • How do you see yourself contributing to teacher education?
