teacher collaboration
Instructors working together
Teacher collaboration is the practice of educators working together to plan lessons, share strategies, analyze student data, or develop curriculum.
It ranges from informal hallway conversations to structured professional learning communities.
Schools increasingly build collaboration time into schedules: The math department meets weekly for teacher collaboration.
The underlying assumption is that collective expertise improves instruction.
