There is a lot more to being an educator than just teaching. You join a community that is larger than yourself and even your school when you decide to enter the profession. The role of outreach to other coworkers, teachers, or other resources you are connecting yourself with is really highlighted by component 4d. Relationships with coworkers, participation in a culture of professional inquiry, service to the school, and involvement in district and school projects are some of these components.
There are numerous methods to accomplish this, but one simple place to begin is through professional learning networks (PLN). Through your online accounts, a PLN enables you to connect with other educators with whom you can exchange ideas, mastery instructors whose journeys you find inspiring and wish to follow, and even potential employers. By getting involved in district-wide school events and taking on leadership positions to promote professional study activities, you can also engage in the professional community.
