As you prepare for the start of your teaching career, we would like you to spend some time framing your thinking about effective teaching and learning.

Linked to the right, you will find a series of questions and prompts in response to a set of articles. We hope these questions and prompts will prepare you for the conversations you will engage in during your time at Urban Teachers. The materials are designed to generate thought as well as begin an exploration of your beliefs about effective teaching and learning.

You are not required to submit a formal response to the questions and prompts. We do ask that you come to Summer Institute with notes and responses that you will bring into your Foundations course. Please be mindful that you should also be prepared to share your thoughts during your content coursework as well.
