Description
Teacher professional development is instrumental to improving student achievement. The Teaching Commission reports that teachers must recognize the diverse student population and be able to effectively address their various special needs. Similarly, professional developers must recognize the diverse teacher population and respond to their various unique needs. This session presents a fidelity tool that measures how teachers enact specific curricula in reading, math, and science that allows for identification of patterns of teachers’ needs. Also discuss how the tool can be modified for use in other contexts to differentiate other kinds of professional development.
No items are available for this session.
