Our Mission:
Chapter 1: Research and Theory
"Of the many initiatives to pass through education, one of the most widely recognized is the concept of professional learning communities. The most popular conception of PLCs is likely the one articulated by Richard DuFour and his colleagues. Its core component is a set of four critical questions that effective PLCs should address.
- What is it we want our students to know?
- How will we know if our students are learning?
- How will we respond when students do not learn?
- How will we enrich and extend the learning for students who are proficient?
In this book, we will approach the questions form a unique perspective. Specifically, we believe that these questions must be addressed simultaneously. The manner in which the first question is answered dramatically affects the way in which the second question is effectively answered, and so on. In addition to providing a unique and internally cohesive answer to the four original questions, we add a fifth and a sixth.
5. How will we increase our instruction competence?
6. How will we coordinate our efforts as a school?
Table 1.1 lists all six questions and the education area emphasized by each."
