This text seeks to respond to this question by  reporting on a study of the professional growth of twelve high  school teachers identified as effective by both administrators and  students at their school sites.  Teachers who participated in the  study varied significantly in surface level characteristics, including  years of experience, academic preparation, and personal  background. However, extensive interviews revealed that  participants shared important similarities in their professional  growth experiences. In particular, all participating teachers  identified opportunities to develop meaningful relationships with  students and opportunities to critically reflect on practice as having  had significant impact on their professional growth.  The common  professional growth experiences of these teachers may indicate  directions that could be helpful in supporting the professional  growth of all urban high school teachers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783838328751\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eLessons from the Lives of Effective Urban Teachers\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783838328751","offer_id":39498954506333,"sku":"9783838328751","price":79.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/1dabf6ba-e8dc-463e-b921-abf9fb512208.jpg?v=1776142429","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/choosing-to-teach-von-heather-lattimer","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
