Join us for Pam’s final talk as the Faculty Director of the Center to Support Excellence in Teaching (CSET) before she moves to the University of Pennsylvania to become the dean of the school of education. Pam will share her thoughts about what we know about supporting excellence in teaching and what we have left to learn.

A former English teacher, Grossman earned her doctorate from Stanford. Her research interests include teacher education and certification; English education, literacy and literature; and professional development. She helped found CSET and has been instrumental in bringing its vision of guaranteeing that all children will experience high-quality instruction.
