Staff-Dev. Videos Aim at New Teacher
A two-tape video training series targets the "new kid on the block": first-year staff or those new to a school or district.
In "Teacher Induction, Mentoring and Renewal," award-winning educator, Dr. Harry K. Wong, speaks on the title's topics.
The first tape details the "how-to's" of a successful research-based induction program, with specific ideas, activities and more. Award-winning districts from three states share their programs.
"Mentoring" is explored in the second tape. Examples of teacher renewal programs, and their systemic benefits, are featured.
