From Teachers to Teacher Mentors Through Staff Development by Karlheinz Haas Director of Math/Science/Technology Education Southern Regional High School District • Manahawkin, New Jersey MultiMedia Schools • January/February 2000 T he Southern Regional High School District in southern Ocean County, New Jersey, is a grades 7-12 regional district that houses about 3,500 students and almost 300 teachers. An overview of the staff development program was featured in the March/April ’99 issue of MULTIMEDIA SCHOOLS Here, I would like to present a snapshot of two initiatives undertaken in the areas of math and science. Building on what had been learned through an already strong staff development program, we decided to take the next step and focus in on teacher leadership and mentorship skills in order to foster a collaborative atmosphere, which could lead us toward an interdisciplinary approach to professional growth. I felt that in my present position as the district’s director of Technology Education, I had the capacity to provide the guidance and support needed to initiate new projects. I could then step back and encourage the teachers to take on responsibility for the activities themselves, bringing other teachers along as the scope of the project and the number of participants grew. The examples cited here to illustrate the district’s approach to staff development have two aspects in common. The examples show how teachers took an active role in their professional growth and became mentors and facilitators for their peers and how active administrative support is an important ingredient of any staff development project.

Critical Issue: Finding Time for Professional Development ISSUE : Reform requires that teachers learn new roles and ways of teaching. That translates into a long-term developmental process requiring teachers to focus on changing their own practice. The problem is, where do teachers find the time for change in their already busy schedules? Unfortunately, "the demands posed by daily teaching and other aspects of the reform continue to absorb a bulk of teachers' energy, thought, and attention" (McDiarmid, 1995). This issue explores the vital concern of how to carve out time, opportunity, and other resources teachers need to realize the vision of education reform. Creating professional development opportunities that educators need in order to help all students achieve the ambitious learner goals of reform will require the support and ideas of everyone. OVERVIEW : School improvement efforts over the last few decades require teachers not only to study, implement, and assess learner outcomes outlined in local, state, and national educational standards but also to provide meaningful, engaged learning
