5-day, Facilitative Leadership
Educators routinely engage in collaborative learning in various settings such as grade-level and content area teams, book groups, study groups, action research and data analysis teams, administrative or leadership teams, school and district committees, and many others. Often, these groups do not have the knowledge and skill to be as highly effective, efficient, and successful as they could be.
This 3-credit graduate course is designed for professional educators who have experience in collaborative practices and want to deepen their understanding of responsive facilitation. The course will provide participants with the background information, skills, practice and tools necessary to effectively lead any kind of collaborative, collegial group, including groups of students. Facilitative leaders might be principals, department chairs, teacher leaders, instructional coaches, or others within a school or supervisory union. The knowledge and skills gained through SRI’s Facilitative Leadership work translate into every setting where adults strive to work collaboratively. We encourage participants to attend in teams of 2 or more so that you may provide each other with support and feedback back in your home context, as you apply your course learnings.
