Professional Learning Community (PLC) Fall 2013

The San Jose Area Writing Project provides PLCs that offer pre-service and in-service teachers the opportunity to participate in professional conversation and collaboration, while earning reasonably priced graduate level credit. This year we will be offering two professional learning community sessions (PLC): one in the fall and one in the spring. There will be a K-6 and a 7-12 cohort in each session. SJAWP Teacher Consultants will facilitate each PLC. Each PLC cohort will analyze student work, gather baseline data, and plan for targeted instruction. The cycle of inquiry will be chosen by consensus of the PLC cohort.

Activities (3)
Fall 2013 Saturday Seminars
All PLC participants will attend all three Saturday Seminars in fall. In addition, PLC members will attend two cohort meetings, one on the first day of the fall program and one follow up meeting.
