A Professional Learning Community consists of teachers from a particular subject area or year group(s), with the goal of focusing on specific areas of teaching and learning to aid in their professional development and improve student learning and achievement (Farbman, Goldberg, & Miller, 2014).
“When teachers work together on
collaborative teams, they improve their practice in two important ways. First,
they sharpen their pedagogy by sharing specific instructional strategies for
teaching more effectively. Second, they deepen their content knowledge by
identifying the specific standards students must master. In other words, when
teachers work together, they become better teachers” (Many & Sparks-Many,
2015, p. 83).
