Professional Development Schools
Creative Solutions for Educators
Introduction
This book is intended as a guide for practitioners interested in forming alliances within their community to support teacher and student success.
Professional Development School Framework
Under the umbrella of a professional development school (PDS), school principals willing to engage in this type of partnership have access to a framework for school renewal.
Critical Factors for Transformation
Within this school/university framework lie four critical factors that transform the ways in which teachers’ teach and schools’ function.
Holistic Approach to School Revitalization
The professional development school model takes a holistic approach to revitalizing schools by sharing knowledge, resources, practices, and the collaborative efforts of P-12 educators and the higher education community.
Benefits of PDSs
Through the collective wisdom of P-12 and university educators, PDSs provide a new way to think about teaching and a rich environment for learning.
