WELL OF INQUIRY PROMPT As a teaching professional, try to recall a time when you were given the opportunity to influence a school or district decision that shaped your teaching environment, your profession, or your students’ experiences as learners. What was that experience like, and how did it affect you as a professional educator? And if you cannot recall any such instances, what effect does that have on your work and perspectives as an educator?
