Jeanne DelColle

Biography

Jeanne DelColle, a high school history teacher of 17 years, is also the 2012 NJ History Teacher of the Year and the 2010 New Jersey Council for the Humanities Teacher of the Year. Jeanne is a member of NNSTOY, the organization of teacher leaders that seeks to transform teaching by using its credible voice to support policies and practices that advance teacher leadership, educator effectiveness, and the conditions, capacity, and culture necessary to support great teaching and learning for all students. Jeanne’s suggestion for making a difference in student outcomes: Cultivate critical thinking skills by helping students understand the ways in which words and phrases are used and refined throughout a text or event. Words are the interface between thoughts and communication. When students recognize that their interpretation of words is based on their experience, they are more likely to take into consideration factors such as context and diversity of perspectives as they explore their roles and responsibilities in a civil society.
