The Role of Local and State Science Leaders in Developing Professional Learning Communities

by: Gregory MacDougall

This chapter tells two stories, both focused on the role of science leadership in developing the teacher leadership that is essential for creating and maintaining professional learning communities (PLCs). The first story provides insight into how district leaders systematically created the teacher leadership and support needed for a PLC to form in one school district. The second is a vignette of a statewide initiative in South Carolina that is building teacher leadership to support PLCs in schools.
