The Best Teacher in You

This course is designed to challenge teachers at all stages in their career to reflect on current practices and continue to grow and develop as a teacher. Based on the book, The Best Teacher in You, by Robert Quinn, Katherine Heynoski, Mike Thomas, and Gretchen Spreitzer, this course offers a variety of ways to go beyond conventional teaching strategies to transform a classroom into a place where students and teachers cocreate the learning experience by incorporating four dimensions of effective teaching a learning. This course will focus on teaching as a process, not a destination, reflective practices, and embracing change.
