PD report workshop adultlearning staffdevelopment coaching

shared by Michelle Krill on 26 Aug 11 - Cached
  • Research shows that professional learning can have a powerful effect on teacher skills and knowledge and on student learning. To be effective, however, it must be sustained, focused on important content, and embedded in the work of collaborative professional learning teams that support ongoing improvements in teachers’ practice and student achievement.
  • the type of support and on-the-job training most teachers receive is episodic, often fragmented, and disconnected from real problems of practice.
  • Most states and districts are still not providing the kind of professional learning that research suggests improves teaching practice and student outcomes,”

  • Workshop overload. Research shows that professional development should not be approached in isolation as the traditional “flavor of the month” or one-shot workshop but go hand-in-hand with school improvement efforts. The report finds that teachers still take a heavy dose of workshops and do not receive effective learning opportunities in many areas in which they want help.
  • But fewer than half found the professional development they received in other areas, such as classroom management, to be of much value, despite the fact that they want more support in this area.

  • The thing is, “personalized learning” isn’t our end goal. Creating learners is. Personalized learning is just the approach we use to get there – and we can personalize, personalize, personalize… but at the end of the year, if we haven’t created learners, we haven’t actually achieved our goal.
  • They know how to SELECT a challenge to solve. They know how to CONNECT to people and resources. They know how to REFLECT and share.

    Provide the person with sample challenges to pick from and show how they fit together towards that vision. DO provide reflection tools that help her/him identify their strengths and weaknesses for themselves DON'T just assume the person knows how to write a quality goal. DO create learning networks for people who have similar goals so they can problem solve together. DO help her/him structure their thoughts; DO provide her/him with a non-threatening platform These advises are very illuminating for educators. By saying "sample challenge", teachers are encouraged to using proper scaffolding to prepare student for great challenge. Through "helping to structure their thoughts ", teacher can coach students to analyze their own thinking and prepare them to practice meaningful reflection. And the most vital skills for true learners, is their reflective skills which allow them to analyze their method of learning, knowing their own strength and weakness and make modification to perfect their skills.
