Inquiry to Action Groups (ItAGs)
Teacher Action Group (TAG) and The Philadelphia Writing Project (PhilWP) are pleased to offer an opportunity for teachers to build community, engage as learners, and develop as activists.
Educators are invited to participate in ItAGs that link social justice issues with classroom practice.
Small groups will meet weekly (for a total of six, two-hour sessions plus a kick-off event) between February and April to share experiences, respond to readings, exchange ideas and develop plans of action.
District educators are eligible to receive Act 48 Credits for participating.
Below find the description of the five ItAGs for 2012.
