Follow on Google News | National Network of State Teachers of the Year Responds to Report by American Federation of TeachersNational network of award-winning teachers responds to "Raising the Bar," a new paper from the American Federation of Teachers.
By: NNSTOY The concepts AFT advances are well-aligned with NNSTOY's agenda for strengthening the teaching profession. NNSTOY is working toward professionalizing teaching by establishing five structures that many other professions have in place, and that teaching lacks: 1) guiding principles developed by practitioners to which the profession holds itself accountable, 2) a common continuum of professional practice with roles for teacher leaders in supporting the practice of peers, 3) distributed leadership models that allow for career advancement, and 4) collaborative practice models that rely on 5) actionable feedback. NNSTOY is currently engaged in research that furthers this work. AFT's position on performance- NNSTOY intends to work with all organizations sharing its interest in educator-driven reform and looks forward to collaborating to strengthen the profession to which it is deeply committed.
