TLA Format

Each year the TLA participants talk together in bi-weekly dialogue groups to develop a BIG question on teaching and learning to study for the year. Typically, Fall quarter is entirely devoted to developing the BIG question.Next, often beginning in Winter quarter, we survey ourselves to see what we think, and mine our collective knowledge on the BIG question. Then, we invite others into the study. Next, we collectively analyze the results of our study and then Spring quarter is typically devoted to developing and enacting action projects based on our new understandings.
