Facilitator: Linda Stewart
In the new 20th anniversary edition of The Courage to Teach, Palmer encourages experienced
and novice educators to share stories and ask questions about who we are as teachers
and why it matters. The book’s premise is “Good teaching cannot be reduced to technique;
good teaching comes from the identity and integrity of the teacher” (p. 10). The present
moment demands that we reconnect with ourselves and one another to prioritize conversations
about teaching. Let’s talk about selfhood, identities, students, mentoring, communities,
trust, undivided lives, teacher leaders, educational movements, transformation, and
much more.
The first eighteen to register will receive a free copy of the book.
