NSELC: Leadership in editing needed
Last week, I got a letter from the Nova Scotia Education Leadership Consortium.
The NSELC is... well, I'm not exactly sure what it is -- because when I visit their website and click the link that says "About The NSELC" I'm greeted with this:
School administrators keep talking about excellence in schools. How about some excellence in writing (or even decent basic skills) from those preaching it?
The NSELC is... well, I'm not exactly sure what it is -- because when I visit their website and click the link that says "About The NSELC" I'm greeted with this:
Historically, the NSELC has targeted educators already in positions of senior leadership (principals, vice principals and central office personnel) and/or teachers who were aspiring to move into an administrative role. The NSELC is now expanding our Modules/Workshops specifically with teachers as the audience i.e. classroom teachers interested in becoming curriculum leaders, student teachers and beginning teachers who want to learn how to be more effective classroom managers, seasoned teachers who want to develop their instructional strategies to better meet the needs of their students, teachers who are fulfilling the role of coach/mentor in their schools or board. This expansion of our audience is very exciting for us and certainly supports what we have learned about effective schools being those that develop and foster leadership from within the school.The NSELC was writing to me because I chair the local elementary school's advisory council. In their letter, the name of the school was wrong, the address was a mish-mash of my home address and the school's address, and the name of the road was misspelled. (In an email I just received, I'm told that the Nova Scotia Department of Education is to blame for this.)

Stumble It!
