Abstract | The purpose of this study is to discover the experiences and supports that influenced the development of teaching effectiveness at different career stages of National University alumni who were identified as County Teachers of the Year in California. National University is the second largest private, nonprofit institution of higher learning in California. The origins of the study, conducted in early 2016, go back to 2006. At that time, a National University survey of County Superintendents was carried out to learn which counties in California had a Teacher of the Year program, and which teachers had been selected. The Alumni Office at National University then began a process of identifying which of the County Teachers of the Year were graduates of National University programs. In reflecting about County Teachers of the Year, the question arose: What experiences and supports influenced these teachers throughout their career so that peers and administrators recognized them as outstanding teachers? To provide foundation for the purpose and methodology of the study, a brief review of literature about effective teaching and stages of a teaching career is provided. Effective teaching develops over time, and therefore a review of stages of a teaching career is included. Additionally, findings from the study showed that virtually all respondents were in a formal or informal role of leadership, and therefore a brief review of teacher leadership is also provided.
