Community Tampa Bay
How do we engage students more in the classroom?
That’s one of the questions international teachers are addressing in Tampa Bay during a 2 month global education initiative. Twenty-four international secondary teachers from 12 countries are joining the Hillsborough Youth Collaborative for two weeks. The teachers are part of the Teaching Excellence And Achievement Program (TEA), a program of the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs of the United States Department of State, and administered by IREX (International Research & Exchanges Board). The group is also here to practice youth and adult partnerships, explore new methodologies for engaging students in a more participitory classroom setting, and improve cross cultural communication.
