Learning walks may be used for embedded professional development. After spending a short time in each classroom (no more than 15 minutes, and often less), participants meet again to engage in a reflective conversation led by the facilitator. They are asked:
What they noticed?
What was surprising?
What was held in common with their own practice?
Importantly, this reflective conversation ends with insights about their own classrooms. Teachers who go on non evaluative walk-throughs of their colleagues’ classrooms can learn how to improve their own instruction. -Douglas Fisher and Nancy Frey
Brief visits to several classrooms give teachers a chance to reflect on a variety of practices.
