Texas Lesson Study supports educational staff by internalizing and implementing their instructional resources. TXLS is currently funded through House Bill 1605 and provides implementation support for campuses that use the Open Education Resources (OER).
The partnership helps teachers improve their effectiveness, engage in meaningful PLCs, improve student learning outcomes and make the shift from lesson planning to lesson internalization.
TXLS helps coaches and leaders establish a proven process for PLCs and learn how to facilitate PLCs using TEA protocols.
