Teachers Helping Teachers.
Stedman, Patricia; Stroot, Sandra A.
Educational Leadership, v55 n5 p37-38 Feb 1998
In 1986, the Columbus (Ohio) Public Schools established the Peer Assistance and Review (PAR) program, cooperatively developed by teachers' union representatives and district administrators. The idea was to help interns (new teachers and those experiencing particular difficulties) become effective teachers. Interns do not perceive a conflict between the program's assistance and review components. Most credit their teaching success to PAR. (MLH)
