Episode 4 Show Notes Episode #4: How Vision and Culture Impact Learning and Leadership

In this episode, we discuss how school leaders can use vision and culture together to impact learning and leadership in classrooms. We talk with a colleague about how she and others initiated two professional learning groups, one for reading and the other for making, where teachers and TOSAs explored, learned, and implemented instructional practices with students at the elementary level.
