Often, teachers feel isolated and don t have easy access to other teachers for guidance and support. To provide professional development opportunities. The POSB Institutes for Instruction would include a training component, focusing on a particular area of instruction to inspire teachers and provide them with tools to improve their instructional practices. To establish online communities for individual disciplines in order to provide ease in communication and to share documents and other materials related to instruction.
