Community of Learners

Continuous lifelong learning takes place in a community. eMINTS helps teachers learn the importance of building a community of learners where learners share, take risks, respect and push each other as they find their own best ways to learn and engage in deep content with one another.

1. Classroom Collaboration: Educator establishes a learning environment where learners work effectively in teams.

2. Learning Environment: Educator fosters interpersonal, noncognitive skill development in an atmosphere of safety so individuals feel comfortable taking intellectual risks.

3. Professional Practice: Educator independently seeks out avenues to extend their learning and improve professional practice.
