Professional Learning Teams and their effect on student achievement
A new study of Professional Learning Teams has shown that they may lead to improved student retention and grades. Professional Learning Teams are small groups of teachers who actively collaborate, share expertise, improve their skills, examine and use various forms of data, and learn from each other -- all for the purpose of improved student learning. They were introduced systematically in five counties in North Carolina in 2003. The study showed that schools that used professional learning teams the most had greater decreases in student retention rates than those with lower implementation. The same was true for student growth on test results, although this was not statistically significant.
