Early Career Teaching Institute

As professionals, teachers should be at the center of creating the policies that affect their daily decisions in the classroom and beyond. Join educational policy scholars from Wisconsin Education Policy Outreach and Practice (“WEPOP”) at UW-Madison in an introductory session called “Teachers as Policy Agents”. We will engage in interactive discussions and activities designed to change the way teachers think of themselves as policy experts, policy makers, and policy advocates. Participants will leave with policy action ideas for an issue important to them and their classroom, as well as tools for building coalitions with others around education policy.
