Keynote Address
Strand I: Taking Action with Teacher Research
Speakers: Frances Rust, Professor, New York University
and Advisor, Teachers Network Policy Institute; Jane Fung,
MetLife Fellow, Teachers Network Policy Institute; Chris
Mullin, MetLife Fellow, Teachers Network Policy Institute
The Teachers Network Policy Institute offers teacher educators
and public school teachers a forum for collaboration toward
educational change, developing leadership in schools, and
improving student achievement. This initiative provides
teachers with professional growth opportunities and support
through networking with other teachers, enables them to
acquire skills and training to conduct action research in
their classrooms and schools, share their knowledge with
the public and policymakers at all levels, become leaders
in the profession, and assume high-profile positions. The
Holmes Partnership will be supporting the development of
five pilot programs to create Teachers Network Policy Institute
affiliates. This collaboration is intended to extend HP’s
commitment to local capacity building, research and documentation,
and policy engagement.
