Reimagined Teaching Workforce: The Future of Team Teaching

🚀 Reimagine What’s Possible

Let’s move beyond the limits of traditional classrooms and envision a new teaching workforce — one that thrives together.

The Future of Teaching Is Collaborative.

The teaching profession is at a crossroads. Schools across the country face mounting pressures like educator burnout, shortages, and inequities that affect both teaching and learning. But what if we could build schools differently—around teams, not individuals?

Learn more about the movement! Join Dr. Brent Maddin, Executive Director of the Next Education Workforce at Arizona State University, for an inspiring session on how team-based teaching models are transforming education by creating more sustainable, collaborative, and student-centered systems.

💡 What You’ll Experience

Inspiring Thought Leadership

Dr. Maddin will unpack how ASU’s Next Education Workforce initiative is helping schools shift from the traditional “one teacher, one classroom” model to interdisciplinary teaching teams that better meet the diverse needs of learners. He’ll share stories of schools implementing this model and how reimagining learning environments can play a big part in the transformation.

Interactive Breakout Discussions

In the second half of this experience, you’ll be invited to engage with fellow educators and designers to explore how these ideas can take root in your own context, whether through professional learning, staffing models, or space design.

🎯 Who Should Attend

School Building Leaders eager to rethink staffing structures and improve teacher retention.

Educators passionate about collaboration and shared responsibility for student growth.

Architects & School Designers seeking insight into how the future of collaborative teaching informs spatial design and learning environments.

🌱 Why It Matters

The Next Education Workforce model envisions schools as ecosystems that nurture educator well-being, student agency, and equitable outcomes.

• For educators, it’s a vision of teaching that’s more sustainable and fulfilling with team staffing models and support from your peers.
• For architects, it’s a new design challenge to better understand how the spaces you design can support collaborative co-teaching and human-centered learning models.

This work directly aligns with our collective mission: designing learning environments that empower educators and engage students in meaningful, connected learning.
