Instructional Leadership Virtual Consulting

 

Whether we are experiencing pandemic learning, which is virtual learning in crisis, or just trying to focus on high quality virtual learning, being an instructional leader is more important than ever. Many schools were not prepared to go full-on virtual overnight. How could they be? Our teacher and leadership prep programs do not offer classes in teaching during a pandemic, and don’t even offer a class in how to teach virtually.

In this webinar series, participants will learn about the most important elements of instructional leadership from Dr. Peter DeWitt’s book Instructional Leadership: Creating Practice Out of Theory. The book focuses on 50 years of research, as well as practical steps leaders can take in this virtual time, which can be used when we all can come back together in school as well.
