      I like what this article is implementing. I learning seems to be much more affective with a hands on approach. Not only that but after trial and error the information will eventually stick. Teach teachers the way you would want your students to be taught!
  • when teachers are coached through the awkward phase of implementation, 95 percent can transfer the skill
  • teachers need to be working with the content they teach. Teachers don’t find professional development on generic topics useful

  • professional development that focuses on teachers analyzing the specific skill and concept they’ll teach in their discipline is not only well-received by teachers, but has also been shown to improve both teacher practice and student learning
  • In order to truly change practices, professional development should occur over time and preferably be ongoing. During the implementation stage, initial attempts to use a new teaching strategy are almost certain to be met with failure, and mastery comes only as a result of continuous practice despite awkward performance and frustration in the early stages.
  • Without support during this phase, it is highly unlikely that teachers will persevere with the newly learned strategy.
  • Case studies suggest that districts may be able to restructure spending for effective professional development without spending significantly more.

  • 1) teachers are at various levels in their knowledge and use of technology, 2) staff development for instructional technology needs to be based on what are currently construed as "best practices" for teachers' professional development, and 3) teachers' professional development in technology may well serve to further larger goals of school reform.

  • The author concludes that the human element in integrating technology is critical. Teachers and other staff members must be supported on an ongoing basis in order to sustain the process of technology integration in the classroom.
