The Hope Street Group has invited applications for $3,500 teacher voice fellowships to bring teachers’ input to the table on national and state education issues. We’ve linked to this group on our “Teacher Voice Groups and Collections” page because it is especially focused on helping teachers actively participate in policy decisions. Be aware that the group has its own stance on some issues, particularly promoting better teacher evaluation within Race To The Top initiatives. To its credit, it emphasizes teachers’ participation in designing the evaluations, and Group members’ comments include both support and critique of state efforts. You can view the fellowship announcement at Hope Street’s website.
