I agree with the skills and conditions in the video, especially communication, empathy, shared goals, and conflict management. Collaboration clearly requires more than just grouping teachers—it needs structure and intention.

I would add two key elements: protected time within the school schedule and psychological safety, so teachers feel able to disagree and share ideas openly.

The leadership example is strong, particularly modelling collaboration through co-teaching. This makes collaboration more credible and is likely beneficial for students, as it aligns practice with what is being promoted.

For sceptical teachers, gradual involvement (like observation) seems useful. Often, seeing real student and workload benefits is what eventually shifts attitudes.

# data[].attributes.body
Most key conditions for effective teacher collaboration—such as trust, shared goals, communication, and time for planning—are valid. However, additional important factors include psychological safety, clear roles, protected collaboration time, conflict management skills, and regular reflection.

Strong leadership plays a crucial role when it actively models collaboration, supports teachers in practice, and involves them in decision-making. This increases motivation and improves consistency in teaching, which benefits students.

Some teachers may be skeptical about collaboration, often due to past negative experiences or workload concerns. This can be addressed by starting with small steps, demonstrating clear benefits, respecting teacher autonomy, and focusing on student outcomes.

Overall, collaboration is most effective when it is embedded in school culture and supported by both leadership and practical experience.

# data[].attributes.body
The conditions and skills necesarry are really well presented, and I do agree they are necessary. Regarding leadership I agree that a less hierarchical position would benefit the students as well, but then the team of teachers have to be really well known to you, and each to know what they are supposed to bring to the table, or at least know what their strongest points are, otherwise you need someone to step up just to give each their role.

I agree with this testemony. I would add that we need, in my country, a fundamental change in the way we perspective education, curriculum alterations, students stability and a mentor/mentee relation to promote collaboration.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with these ideas of the teachers and also everyone must adapt to new ways of teaching over time.

I agree. I change my routine because no class is the same , no student is just like his classmate , so I like to work with groups. I divide the class into 3 or 4 groups and I give them task according to their level. It is hard to prepaire and not easy at all but it is rewarding.

It really is very difficult for all teachers to have an interest in modifying their routine and the way they work.
Many teachers do not join and for fear have no interest in joining a collaborative activity.
I think the work developed by American Schoolnet is innovative because it offers the teacher arguments, examples that can be supported and create and improve their participation.

I agree with the list of skills and conditions, and that teacher collaboration is motivating and beneficial for students.

In my school we are trying to do peer osservation welcoming colleagues in class during our lessons

# data[].attributes.body
I would like to highlight what was said at a point: "We have to know each other." How can or could we collaborate with each other if we barely know one another? So, working in collaboration can certainly help us really be part of a team not just "another brick on the wall". I agree with her when she says that those who are still reluctant in taking part of the process can just sit there and be an observer, because as the processo of collaborating is an involving one, they will surely feel like taking parts.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that in our days we need teachers who are willing to share, support, and explore together. I think that developing a collaborative culture will result in reducing teacher attrition, improving student learning, and creating the type of school that everyone searches for when they decide to become an educator.

I've worked with colleagues with whom it was completely impossible to work anyway for personality reasons. It is very frustrating when we want to do a good job and we depend on the collaboration of someone who is not aware of this possibility and undermine all our efforts. There was no way to communicate with such a closed person.

I agree with the skills mentioned as necessary for teacher collaboration to flourish in schools, and I would add openness and maybe empathy. In my institution leadership encourages collaboration. There are many teachers in my school who love collaboration and are enthusiastic when they have the opportunity to work collaboratively. I haven't worked with teachers who are skeptical so far but if this might happen I will definitely help them see the advantages.

Teachers are skeptical as well as anxious to collaborate with others!
Leadership is important in teaching! The teacher is the leader of the class! In order to succeed you need to inspire your students!

When teacher cooperate and work with students they share responsability, they show ability to work with others, they are motivated and so they instill their abilities to students that learn following their example.

I agree with all of skills and conditions cited in the video as necessary for teacher collaboration to flourish in schools.  I am sure that much more can be done in modelling collaboration in our school, despite the fact that we already try to make some steps towards it. This video has inspired me to invite sceptical teachers to observe the process and otcomes of successful collaborative teaching and learning to change their attitude. I cannot but agree more that collaboration is motivating and beneficial for both teachers and students. For example, in our school there is a huge gap in methodology used by experienced and young teachers. If those teachers could come together or at least plan a lesson, there would be a chance of putting a bridge between using traditional and modern methods.

Iagree with her about mentio

# data[].attributes.body
Collaboration is one of the best thing that generally teacher can do. Because it increases a lot of skills and teachers can learn a lot from their colleagues. In my experience, I collaborate a lot with my colleagues but sometimes I prefer to made a draft of learning design alone and after work on it with my collegues because generally I'm very fast compared to others.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with that list of skills and conditions, also trust between colleagues, with collaboration you improve yourself and that reflects to the students.

I work with teachers who are sceptical about collaboration and I agree the best thing to do is to call them in your class to sit as observers, just to see how collaboration is going to be.

# data[].attributes.body
There are a lot of teachers happy to collaborate with you but others think that you want to judge their work and their capabilities. So I'm always cautious to propose collaboration with others teacher but sometimes I discovered that also the teacher that works in an individualistic way, appreciates the exchange of ideas. It's often a matter of "gentle touch": initially I propose tiny collaboration and then I go further...

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with the skills list cited by Majella. According to my experience, I like to collaborate with teachers. This is a need in my job, I think. Other teachers told me they need to collaborate with others too. It took years to me to learn how to do it and I think it will take other more years to improve. In few words: in my view there is no end to this type of learning. I  think it is  also important to respect the skeptical ones: their role enrich the human biodiversity in schools.

# data[].attributes.body
Knowledge, skills and attitude are the three key elements of the competences needed. The current school I teach in has an excellent approach to collaboration and the managerial team supports it. We use different methods and techniques, share experiences, share materials as well as methods and techniques especially when talking about special needs students and the process of inclusion. There might be some teachers who are sceptical about collaboration, but I believe that almost everybody has already understood the benefits of collaborative working in my school.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with her about the mentioned skills. Teachers need to have some knowledge, positive attitude towards collaboration, communication skills, and motivation to work with each other in a collaborative atmosphere. Some teachers can be tough. They only do the teaching and that's it! They believe that they do the best and they don't accept any compliments, criticism or advice. They isolate themselves. They don't want to cooperate and collaborate. They are hard to access. That's a big challenge

# data[].attributes.body
In many cases, as far as my experience is concerned, more than collaboration, there is competition, and a certain degree of lack of solidarity that clearly harms the students. New competences are necessary for teachers to work collaboratively, and this requires time, but also specific training and recognition.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree all good advice and ideae because some teachers are sht to try learnand perform new tools and methods in their profession life.Some teachersare egear to develop their some skills, such as language,technology,web tools and new methods....So teachers should do collabaration to complete eachothersweaknesses.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with her, we have to be enthusiastic and always count on different personal situations to enhance motivation. If the students achieve better outcomes, it will show the advantages of this way of working

# data[].attributes.body
Collaboration between teachers is not easy to realize because of competition, no time available for sharing experiences, personal attitudes so we have to learn to create a more collaborative environment also for our students.

# data[].attributes.body
There will always be teachers more prone to collaboration than others. You need not cristicise those who do not or who won't. It's a matter of choice based on who you are.. What we always must do, on the other hand, is to better ourselves in everything we do

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with everything Majella Dempsey said. In order for teachers to collaborate, they must have the skills listed, but among all the most important is the motivation to achieve a common goal, otherwise the initial enthusiasm diminishes, until it disappears completely. I have little experience of collaboration, and only for some short-term projects. I would very much like to go beyond the individualistic way of teaching and finding ways to collaborate in a constant way with my colleagues, but perhaps what I miss is the competence of the leader.

# data[].attributes.body
I you agree with the list of skills and conditions cited as necessary for teacher collaboration to flourish in schools. I would add problem solving, using technology effectively, and critical thinking and creativity skills. These skills make teacher team better. We don’t teach leadership in our school but if we would teach as optional lesson it would be really useful. Yes I do work with that kind of teachers and I have worked with teachers with my workshops. In workshops I just told them why it is important and students take as a model teachers. But in my school I work different subjects from them so I have not get any opportunity to try.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree entirely with Prof. Dempsey. But, unfortunately, in my school, leadership doesn't model collaboration. We don't collaborate with our principle or with our colleagues, we share our experiences during our breaks and we can get advises or support for older teachers, but we don't work in a team. That's why I am here. I want to learn how to change my mindsets, and then, my colleague's mindsets, how to change this individualism. I don't even have colleagues opened to collaboration in my school, they all are skeptical about collaboration, but I knew on Facebook some people opened to that from my town and, from this summer, we started meeting at our local library and have some workshops and discussions sessions with the goal to start a community of collaboration. We are from different schools and this is a big challenge, but we are focused now to share our vision with others and challenge them to be part of our team.

# data[].attributes.body
Openmindedness is a basic need to allaw collaboration, especially among adults who have to choose to listen and learn form others. In my school we tried to make a group to experiment and share some good practices, and teachers can partecipate or simply assist.

# data[].attributes.body
Professor Dempsey's  list of skills and conditions cited was very exhaustive... As a teacher trainer myself, I tried to teach model collaboration, but I found it harder with the adults than with the school students... To be teachers were very sceptical about collaboration, and in the beginning only did it because they had to, Eventually though in the end most of them agreed on the benefits of collaboration. I am definitely going to try to have a non-collaborative person work with a group of very collaborative people, as suggested... I am sure it will work, thanks for the tip!

# data[].attributes.body
I fully agree with the given examples of skills and conditions cited as necessary for teachers to develop collaboration in schools. In my opinion the most important factor is a good will - if there's a will, there's always a way.
I haven't been taught collaboration during my studies, lately I've seen some courses provided by teacher training institutions about collaboration but I haven't been convinced to take up any of them. In my school the team does collaborate, more or less effectively, mainly while there are common goals to achieve. I have tried to convinced some of my colleagues to work in a more collaborative model however I am easily discouraged by their lack of enthusiasm or sceptical attitude.

# data[].attributes.body
In the school where I work, not all colleagues look for collaboration, some do not deviate from the traditional. I think the mentality needs to be changed.

# data[].attributes.body
teachers in my school usually prefer the presentation method.
As it is known, the presentation method makes it easier to teach in crowded classes.
little time - lots of information.
I think that they need to train and experience this method in order to understand the importance of collaboration.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that it is imperious for a good collaboration to have team members who are truly willing to collaborate for a common goal.
In our school, teacher collaboration is not at its best, I hope this will improve.

# data[].attributes.body
I totally agree with the list of skills and conditions listed. I think the most important one is Moving beyond the sharing, but at the same time it is the most difficult to develop because of the time factor. Skeptical teachers, for example, will stick to sharing. About the roles of each teacher as member of a collaborative group I think another one is necessary: someone who is really in touch with the world around, someone who can stimulate colleagues- and students- to consider subject from always new and up-to-date perspectives. If you have to start working with a new methodology we have to be sure that the subject we propose is at least as challenging as it

# data[].attributes.body
the skills and conditions mentioned are essential for teacher collaboration to flourish in schools. As in every school, I work with teachers who are sceptical about collaboration, and I have worked a lot to help them see the advantages of this way of working but not everyone has been willing to do it: Anyway I'm lucky because we are becoming a good team, even if we are all well on years!!

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with the list of skills mentioned. My school Board is open to collaborative learning environment but most of my peers believe that collaborative work is just putting the teachers in a group. It is really difficult to change those close minds, it will take some time.

I agree with the list of skills and conditions mentioned. In my experiences it's not so hard to try colleagues with these features

I find Moving Beyond the Sharing a changing mindset challenge.
One of the essential skills for Collaborative teaching work, i would chose it as a Marketing line!
My school as a low level of collaborative teaching work but I think the Board is open minded to that.
As for skepticals there are many and always will be.
But if the conditions identified in the video were given surely they be less and less in every school. Specially if they see ( very good strategy to allow observers) the benefits to their Learning Process and to the Students.

# data[].attributes.body
I do believe that unless teachers themselves work collaboratively, it is very hard to convince, let alone inspire teachers do the same. All teachers involve in a project should bring along their own expertise and they should make sure to encourage each other.

# data[].attributes.body
I always thought that the important key is time. When teachers have the chance and the time to get to know each other then is easier to develop communication skills or to build a strong trust between them.
Sometimes is difficult to convince others to work in a more collaborative way and in a way of sharing and understanding the aspect of others.

# data[].attributes.body
I think collaboartion is very important for teachers beacuse I think it helps them to develop leadership skills.
By learning colaboarively, students become more responsible and avoid conflicts.
It is important for teachers to attend courses to learn collaborative learning methods.
From my personal experience, not all teachers want to apply collaborative learning methods.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Majella's list, but sometimes it is very difficult to work with some colleagues who keep using their way of teaching which is, sometimes, isolated or individualistic. Of course "they need attitudes and knowledge" about technology but above all they have to be prepared to collaborate and share ideas or doubts.

# data[].attributes.body
The complex integration of collaborative skills is an educational process that can start at any age. Consuming too much time, recognition of the advantages of this work methodology has to be progressive, preferably demonstrated through concrete examples (by "induction"). It is of utmost importance that the different levels of school management (in particular departments) disseminate the good practices and their respective advantages related to the teaching and learning processes.
Of course, many of the skills required for collaborative work derive from lifelong education, from how we overcame difficulties and from the characteristics of the people who most influenced our way of dealing with situations.
Perhaps for this reason, collaborative work among teachers already shows different levels of development between countries.

# data[].attributes.body
Majella made some very interesting points in the piece. I know that, as a teacher, I have a particular skill set that may serve my pupils well. but I also know that other teachers on my staff have other skills, which I don't possess, but which would also lead to more engaging and effective lessons for my students. If I could 'buy' these additional skills and experiences online, I would be waiting expectantly outside my classroom door for the courier to arrive with the box of skills and experiences. So, why would I be reluctant to avail of the vast amount of experiences and skills that lie in the staff room, just across the corridor. We are probably one of the greatest resources each other has - collaboration can release this enormous potential.

I think it was a very interesting video about necessary skills and conditions for collaboration. I work with teachers who are very sceptical about collaboration and I work also with others that want to have collaboration but they haven;t developed the necessary skills yet. I agree with the video that   teaching is still a very isolated and isolating practice, so we have to work hard in order to gain the required skills.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with the list of skills and conditions presented as necessary for the cooperation of teachers to succeed in schools. I would have added more support to the school administration. It is very necessary. There is a leadership in our school, there are teachers who get involved in international projects. This is a mathematics teacher. Such projects motivate students very much.But in my school there are teachers who are skeptical about cooperation. They like to work in the old way.

# data[].attributes.body
I totally agree with the collaboration skills in the video; I think teachers are a model, and if they really collaborate, students can feel it and imitate their model. I know it's difficult, because, in Italy, teachers use to work individually; in my school we work on the curriculum as a team and it's a really motivating experience.

# data[].attributes.body
Collaboration depends on many issues. If teachers are motivated and want the best for their school and their students they should aid each other. When they explain to their colleagues the way they work and they don't mind for their criticism, they learn and become better

# data[].attributes.body
Teacher collaboration is the key, each teacher with their own skills and attitudes can make up a strong collaborative group. The skills and conditions mentioned are fundamental, but they are very rich and complex, and the richer they are, and more complex they are, the stronger the collaborative team and the stronger the benefits for our students. Only, it is not easy to work in such a way: it requires time, strong motivation, and space for collaborative planning. These factors are not always there.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with her list. I think collaboration is very important for teachers and I think it helps them to develop leadership skills, people take on different roles within a group or a team. In my teaching esperience I often collaborated because the collaboration is very important to build good relationships.

# data[].attributes.body
I know that the lack of collaboration is worldwide and not only in some portuguese schools, but somehow this is a result of frustration, low motivation and the same works year after year. The system itself don't make improvements to growth and leads teacher's to self-motivation, self-improvement and some of us (teachers) they just don't have it at all. So what we can do to improve motivation and collaboration? What are the examples we wanna give to our students? Even if the system is wrong, full of bad features and not giving back the effort ... we have to make it happen, for us, for our future students! They deserve better and in this course all of us are preparing to better collaborative teaching and learning, knowing that is complex and has so many challenges but we will do it, anyway.

# data[].attributes.body
Teacher's collaboration is really important even if difficult to reach at a large scale. Increasingly we are planning learning units which involve the participation of more subjects inside the curriculum. The only place where we have discussed the implementation of the learning unit so far, has been the consiglio di classe at the beginning of the school year. It seems that most teachers are skeptical about this new kind of teaching approach but I think that it could be really motivating for our students. Last year I attended a course based on the construction of collaborative learning units through a digital tool, called curriculum mapping which I found very useful for sharing information but above all for analysing the goals each subject pursued for the realization of the final project inside each classroom. I invited my colleagues into the platform and even if very slowly we started collaborating to construct our learning units It's just the beginning of a new slow process which I hope can represent the first step of a greater collaboration.

# data[].attributes.body
Starting from the fact that the school is a body with weak links, I believe that the problem of collaboration between teachers is to be found in the lack of motivation, incentives and a high degree of frustration. If we add to this the organization of time in the school where meetings between teachers are reduced to a minimum, we can easily understand how the culture of collaboration does not exist. And this is a nonsense within an educational institution that should also educate its pupils to collaborate.

I fully agree with the list of skills and I can't find anything to add to it. Actually, I've never thought of the impact teachers' collaboration could have on students before, and, to be frank, I strongly believe that most teachers who realize how beneficial it is for the students would change their mind about collaboration and they'd be willing to give it a try and see for themselves the advantages of working collaboratively with their colleagues.

I strongly agree. It is not easy to find a school where all teachers are willing to collaborate and share practices with colleagues. I think there should be someone at school (for ex. a teacher) in charge of making the staff aware of the opportunities connected to co-teaching and able to regulate cooperative practices at school.

I agree, and as in other professions, we do not choose who our colleagues will be, but we have the freedom to be able to work on projects with those who have more affinity and share our ideals and projects.
Doing this kind of work with our students will be all easy, now the biggest obstacle in my school is the lack of means and tools. At the digital level we are far behind other schools.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree, in school there are always teachers who are more open to collaborative work than others. I think sometimes this kind of collaborative work will not work as well because it is imposed by the directions of the schools. As for working with students, what I have said is very important.

I believe that the basic ingredients of a collaborative team are the personal relationships between the members of the group. If we want to share a common goal into a shared project we have to understand and appreciate the presence of other colleagues in the team.

When we get confidence with other colleagues it is very easy to share ideas, projects, points of view, future programs...

As a teacher of 1st CEB I agree with the list of skills and conditions cited as necessary for teachers' collaboration to flourish in schools. Teachers need to empathize with each other and to identify as educational professionals. It is true that each individual has to be valued and that the work theme captivates both parties. I always work in a pedagogical way within the classroom and the teachers who work with me accept the model collaboration being motivating and beneficial for students and teachers. The teachers who work with me love to work collaboratively.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with the list. I gave teacher training on behalf of the development of cooperation in the school, but I have to state that. Collaboration is not just shared, and everyone needs to spend time. Your job is really difficult if you can not exceed some teachers' communication problems and individual work approach. Collaborative work requires a more social environment.

# data[].attributes.body
Based on my experience roles and responsibilities, tasks  are very important to encourage collaboration and give opportunities to everybody to contribute to the activities. I think that every teacher has special expertise that should be appreciated and used so that each teacher feels involved into the activities. The leadership in my school promotes model collaboration; students can take advantage from teacher collaboration, because it increases student's effort.

# data[].attributes.body
Q: Do you agree with the list of skills and conditions cited as necessary for teacher collaboration to flourish in schools?
A: Yes, I agree. If each memeber of a group has a specific role, it's simpler to work all together at the same goal.

Q: What would you add to this list based on your experiences?
A: It's necessary to have a good coordinator, and a trust leadership shared with everyone.

Q: Does the leadership in your teacher training institution or the current school in which you teach model collaboration?
A: In my school we don't talk about leadership every day... There aren't any courses, any groups about leadership in our school. In these weeks I'm learning on edx.org a course about "inclusive leadership". I'm going to plan a course for my colleagues, after the end of this another online learning adventure! ;-)

Q: If so, how, and do you think this is motivating and beneficial for students?
A: I think that leadership is shareable with our testifying. Students look us and absorbe our behaviors, our values, our resilience skills.

Q: Do you work with teachers who are sceptical about collaboration, and what have you tried - or intend to try - to help them see the advantages of this way of working?
A: I prefer to learn everything from everyone, included the sceptical teachers. They're often old teachers, who don't like technologies, but they can teach me many many tips on leadership, the control of class, the capacity to mantain the energies along my daily works with students. To help them see the advantages of this way of working I think that it's important to plan a valid work group structure, giving to everyone a specific role. I'm agree with Majella Dempsey, in this case.

It was very motivating to hear about the importance of the different roles and the leadership that are fundamental for effective collaboration.
In my school theoretically we can collaborate when we find the place and time to plan together on the other hand the school environment is not encouraging to do that unfortunately.
Yes I have worked with teachers who are sceptical about collaboration and beyond that they are not able to collaborate at all. I have tried many different ways and I still couldn't achieve a tiny little goal either...

If you work together with teachers, students also have a different attitude, a better participation and involvement ... But in Italy as well as the time (secondary school degree) is organized and the activity is not always possible to collaborate together...

These days students are  very advanced and they want to learn in new way. They are not comfortable with the old method. for the improvement we teachers have to make a team in which we can learn different teaching technique with the fellow teachers. Without collaboration a single teacher with his/her old method are not going to be effective in the class room.

i think collaborative teaching help the teacher to improve in the class room.

It is time for us to put ourselves in our pupils shoes. How could we make them learn collaboratively if we, teachers, cannot?

This time I watched two times :O
I think I have to share this material with our teachers.
Collaboration is important.
Most importantly there has to be curiosity and ongoing   will/wish to learn.
I am so pleased we have a special time in our time-table for team-work or collaboration.
Though I am not sure how effectively teachers are using the time for it.
We can' t check teachers either :)

I agree with list of skills described on this video. Teacher must be example for students, if students see group of teachers who collaborate this could be a good example. Teachers can exchange ideas for teaching, this can give them more resources for next activities, they can develop better lesson plans for their teaching.

I agree with the list of skills and conditions described in the video. I think collaboration is very important for teachers because I think it helps them to develop leadership skills.
Collaboration is where teachers sit down and we talk each to other, within a group of two or three… Teachers  decide what is really good about the resource or the lesson plan, or the planning of the curriculum that they  are doing, and if they  are able to share their different skills, their different motivations about why they  want to do it in that particular way.
