| High school students representing 17 different countries
negotiate at a Global Forum. They "met" on-line on a daily
basis for six weeks prior to the Forum. |
Since few individuals alone possess the full knowledge or competence
to solve complicated problems or manage complex tasks, the world of work
involves people interacting in teams and groups. In CISP, teams bring
together the diverse and complementary knowledge, skills, talents, and
strengths of collaborating members, whether these are students in a classroom
or teacher leaders responsible for the design of staff development programs
in partner schools and districts. Teachers who participate in project
site activities as pairs or teams provide critically important mutual
support and reinforcement for one another. Operating within their home
environments, such teams becomes entities that sustain -- and extend to
a wider group of fellow teachers -- a rich professional dialogue about
essential reforms in teaching and learning.
