In most districts and schools, teachers are required to be an active participant in some type of community of practice. The communities provide a platform for knowledge sharing, where educators can exchange ideas, strategies, resources, and best practices.

• What types of peer collaborations and/or coaching experiences have you had as an educator? What did you learn and how were they helpful?
• What are the benefits of analyzing student work with a community of practice? How might this help a teacher improve their instructional practice?
• What are some takeaways that stand out to you from each of the videos? How might you apply this knowledge in your own teaching?
