How Do You Do Professional Development?

All teachers are required to participate and enjoy the “benefits” of PD, or Professional Development.  Required because of licensure, and moreover because of employment requirements, as well.   But what IS professional development and what SHOULD it be?  

This week we look at all the angles of what possibilities PD offers - both on campus and off. 

Why aren’t teachers going to more conferences?  Why are conferences more biased toward administrators and policy-makers rather than teachers who actually are doing the work and could use the respite, the shoring up of skills, and the coordination of networking with others in order to create a more vibrant and innovative educational structure?  

How might we improve the structure?  What would your input be?  Tell us!
