  10. Transformative Journey Year 4Resident Educators now have a deepened understanding of teaching and learning as a reciprocal, collaborative, and ongoing journey. There is a transformation as they now embrace and accept the challenges and responsibilities of teacher leadership within and beyond the Resident Educator Program. Year 3Resident Educators are now inducted into the full life of teaching. Through reflective practice they more fully realize the complexities of the profession. Resident Educators have a deeper understanding of teaching and learning and are preparing to demonstrate their professional growth through the performance-based summative assessment. Year 2As Resident Educators begin to identify with the life of teaching, differentiated support is provided in the form of flexible mentor models including: one-to-one mentoring, co-teaching, and collaborative cohorts. These models create an environment of inquiry which provides avenues to shift their thinking from routine processes of examination to the in-depth concepts of analysis. Year 1Resident Educators are introduced to the life of teaching. The Resident Educator Program provides instructionally intensive one-to-one mentoring, as well as the emotional support needed to accelerate the professional growth of Resident Educators.
