There is an abundance of research that proves that sole dependence on the following, traditional models of professional development is not effective:

Conferences, Lectures, Book Clubs, etc.

What does work...

We've spent years studying what works with respect to professional development and how to translate adult learning into positive student outcomes. Here's what the research says are the core components of truly effective professional development (Hattie, 2009; Timperley, Wilson, Barrar, & Fung, 2007):

External expertise...


Engaging teachers in the learning process...

YOU.
