The Importance of
Effective Collaboration
+
+What is Collaboration?
Collaboration consists of diversified teams working together inside and outside a team with focus on improving innovation, relationships and effective interactions to create value and achieve a common goal.
-Carlos Dominguez
+Experiences with Collaboration Can you recall a time when you collaborated
with another colleague? Who? When? Where?
How did you collaborate? Write each response to this question on a separate sticky note?
What made it work?
What got in the way of your collaboration efforts?
What are you hoping to take away from this session about collaboration?

In the immersion program student outcomes are equally shared by two teachers…and unless they purposely and conscientiously collaborate with each other, they are likely to: undermine each others’ efforts, waste time and resources by duplicating
efforts work harder than necessary most significantly, compromise student
outcomes
