\"TeachingMarch 14, 2013<\/p>\n

By Marc Tafolla<\/p>\n

As a community, we know that no other in-school factor affects students as much as effective teaching. Therefore, Oakland\u2019s parents, teachers and community leaders have expressed a strong desire to help the city\u2019s children access effective teaching in their classrooms. We also know that our children will do best when we work in deep partnership with their teachers to support their work in the classroom.<\/p>\n

On March 20, our coalition will be gathering for Teaching Matters: The NCTQ Study Release to talk about the release of a study by the National Council on Teacher Quality, and actions we all can take to support effective teaching in every Oakland classroom (see below for more info).<\/p>\n

The Effective Teaching Coalition \u2014 which includes Oakland Community Organizations (OCO), SEIU Local 1021, Youth Together, Youth Uprising, The Education Trust-West, GO Public Schools Leadership Center, and the Lawyers\u2019 Committee for Civil Rights \u2014 will host this event to highlight the importance of supporting our teachers.<\/p>\n

Last Thursday night, more than 150 Oaklanders braved the cold and rain to join the Effective Teaching Coalition at its first event: \u201cTeaching Matters, Series 1: “The Importance of Supporting Teachers So All Children Succeed.”<\/p>\n

Around tables, we shared memories of our favorite teachers and what made them effective. We also talked about roadblocks to effective teaching in Oakland and heard from experts, and a representative from each of the coalition members.<\/p>\n
