Description
Professional development should be different, innovative, cost effective, and efficient- relevant for teachers and administrators, and results oriented. How is it possible for school, district and state administrators to provide updates, current research and the latest information on successful practices with increasingly limited funds? It is critical that educators receive the latest updates in the field. When travel budgets are tight or nonexistent what strategies are effective for reaching out to share information? Two state directors have developed a menu of options that could easily be replicated.
