MISSION - WHAT WE DO
Our mission is to grow a professional collaborative network for educators to collaborate between public, private, and charter sectors. We believe when teachers collaborate, the future of education is greater than the sum of its parts
VISION - GOALS AND ASPIRATIONS
Working across the boundaries of private, public, and charter schools, Cooperative teachers collaborate & create the space for PreK-12 teachers to collaborate and share best practices in teaching and learning. Members meet monthly at different schools all over the state to continue the conversations, support, learning, growth, and development, and work on plans, units, study groups, and coordinate observations. They are leaders in their schools from whom other faculty members can seek input, feedback, resources, and connections to the larger Nashville education community, increasing teacher job satisfaction and teacher retention in all sectors.
SERVICES - HOW WE DO IT
Summer Workshop During the weeklong summer workshop, teacher participate in a variety of activities focused on increasing community building, collaboration, and communication skills including: Critical Friends Groups, Mindfulness and Social/Emotional Learning in all subjects, Teaching for Understanding, Human-Centered Design Thinking, EdCamp, and more. Teachers begin the week with a dinner and welcome event and close the week with a closing event hosted at venues in the city. These elements of the workshop are key to creating a collegial and professional setting. Continued Connections and Collaboration Once the summer workshop is over, we enter the second phase of the Cooperative. Cooperative teachers share resources, provide professional support and problem solving, and share experiences and best practices in teaching and learning in a private online workspace, as well as at our monthly meetings hosted by schools in neighborhoods all over Nashville.Our monthly meetings are a mix of sharing the latest from our classrooms, following up on our online conversations, asking for help, support, or resources, and school visits. They provide a rare opportunity to see schools all over the city – the classrooms, faculty lounges, libraries, labs, and student work spaces all offer a great deal of information and new ideas. EdCampNash The Educators' Cooperative hosts Nashville's only regional EdCamp, open to teachers and members of the larger education community to gather, share, learn, and collaborate together for a one-day workshop. Growth-minded observation, feedback, and evaluation. Educators who bring a growth mindset to their work everyday are hungry for feedback, observation data, and evaluative comments on their teaching, planning, and classroom management. The Educators' Cooperative provides the planning, organization, rubrics, templates, and vision to provide participating teachers with the optimal number of observations and type of feedback needed to continually hone and improve their craft and effectiveness. The EdCo Summer Collective In order to develop the paths of leadership for teachers who choose to stay in the classroom, The EdCo Summer Collective serves as a platform for EdCo teachers to share their best practices with the larger Education community in Nashville. Member teachers lead workshops with their partners in other sectors. Keynote speakers set the tone, followed by a variety of workshop choices. Information about the first EdCo Collective can be found.
