Timeline of the Yale-New Haven Teachers Institute® and Yale National Initiative®

This timeline traces the history of the Teachers Institute from its beginnings in New Haven to the recognition it received as an early leader in the movement for university-school collaboration, and its success in building on that recognition to disseminate knowledge of the Teachers Institute approach as a model of both professional development for teachers and of school-college collaboration to improve teaching in public schools. The timeline includes documents, photographs, and video programs from throughout the Teachers Institute’s history.
