The members of the Classroom Observation SIG are an eclectic bunch! We range from faculty members who research K-12 classrooms and include observations in our work to PhD researchers at universities who work on large-scale projects that examine best practices in classroom observations. We are very interested in observation forms, video observations, and how we get the most information from our time viewing the important work that teachers are doing with their students.
We are lucky to count many graduate students among our members, too!
Join the Classroom Observation SIG if you want to be a part of the group that watches where the action happens in education - the CLASSROOM!
