Abstract	Cross-generational learning teams that bring together novice teachers with veteran teachers would address problems at both ends of the teacher pipeline--and benefit student learning at the same time. In this cross-generational learning team, each member brings different skills to support a child's learning--some bring deep science content knowledge, others bring real-world community service experiences, and a teacher brings knowledge of how students learn best. Such teams would recognize that quality teaching is not an individual accomplishment and would surround teachers and students with the teamwork that is at the heart of high-performing organizations. The author discusses the relevance of the cross-generational learning teams in designing and developing 21st-century schools that use Baby Boomer's wealth of knowledge and skill to prepare today's youth for college, work, and community affairs.
