Abstract

School districts often utilize professional development to enhance teacher skills, with a particular emphasis on equity and social justice. This research delves into the perspectives of elementary school educators who participated in small-group residency professional development centered on equity. Through the voices of ten elementary school teachers, we gain insight into their overall experiences with professional growth, experience with the residency model, utilization of lesson study techniques, as well as challenges and successes they faced during the professional development process.
