- Istruzione
The Road to Better Teaching is about sharing the stories of educators as they get better at teaching. The focus of each discussion will be on an artifact of their learning, and discussing why this moment of development is important to their improvement, and the improvement of the field. This process parallels the portfolio development practice that is in use at the University of Mississippi's School of Education.
