The Steve Barkley Ponders Out Loud podcast offers insight on important educational topics and explores educational best practices.
In this episode, Steve talked to Tammy Jochinke, the Director of Teaching, Learning, and Innovation at the Dubai American Academy, who created a process for 240 teachers to design professional growth plans based on a hypothesis from asking the question, "What do my students need me to learn?” Tammy shares the importance of focusing on student success with teacher autonomy and curiosity. Teachers were supported in professional learning communities (PLC) groups and a colleague who served an impact partner.
