Restoring Meaning to Teaching was a product of the Promoting Instructional Coherence Project in the Program for the Improvement of Teaching and Learning. As a result of our work with the teachers quoted in this paper, the project produced A Flashlight and Compass: A Collection of Resources to Promote Instructional Coherence to assist other educators in constructing a comprehensive approach to teaching and learning. This collection of activities, tools, and strategies provides useful resources for facilitating groups of teachers in becoming more reflective about their practice, making instructional decisions based on student learning, and creating more coherent learning experiences for students.
