Revisiting NWP Social Practices: Advocacy
Date: March 8, 2018
Summary: In preparation for this year's Spring Meeting, we're revisiting this discussion on a set of social practices embedded in NWP-style teacher leadership. Guests examine the practice of advocacy, analyze three case studies to explore what teacher leadership through advocacy can look like, and consider how teachers can take up the practice of advocacy.
Excerpt from Show
Cathy Fleischer, co-director of the Eastern Michigan University Writing Project, on the concept of "everyday advocacy":
