Bay Area Educational Leadership Forum (EdForum)


Engaging Community around Effective Educational Improvement

ISKME inaugurated and runs the EdForum to provide the educational community in the San Francisco Bay Area with a regular, on-going opportunity for sharing ideas face-to-face about effective educational improvement. It is the only Bay Area forum that brings together education leaders, practitioners, board members, business leaders, and innovators to share and collaborate on effective knowledge management strategies and practices for the improvement of education.

Past EdForums include:

  • Customizing and Adapting Web-Based Educational Materials and Changing Education in the Process
  • How to Be Systemic and Site-Based: Using Professional Development to Improve Data Use  
  • Teacher Leadership and Change: The Role of Unions in Fostering Educational Improvement

Email edforum@iskme.org and ask to be added to the EdForum mailing list to hear about upcoming events.
