	<TITLE>What does it mean to be a teacher leader?</TITLE>
	<ABSTRACT>&lt;p&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 11pt; color: black; font-family: 'Georgia','serif'&quot;&gt;A few weeks after the Teacher Leaders Network was established in March 2003, more than 180 accomplished teachers from five southeastern states participated in a moderated three-day conversation around the question: &amp;quot;What does it mean to be a teacher leader?&amp;quot; This 40-page excerpt covers the main themes and provides some of the flavor (and enthusiasm) of this initial dialogue. The range of points of view about the meaning of &amp;quot;teacher leadership&amp;quot; will be of interest to anyone promoting the concept of teacher leadership for school reform.&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
