Knowledge, Learning, Community
I have to admit I couldn't even really make sense out of that title. But when Dean Shareski says "own their learning" what he seems to be talking about is teadchers directing their own professional development. It's a really awkward phrease, I think. But I like the idea of teachers (and anyone else!) managing their own professional development. And I agree employers could support thjis, by giving staff time to learn, autonomy in their decision-making, and support to cover expenses and resource needs. Yes, I agree staff should share, but I dont think "the expectation to share" is something staff need, it's something employers might want.
