SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
This new book from a premier staff developer gathers a wealth of tools, strategies and essential understandings for developing, delivering and coaching professional development. With the current emphasis on site-based professional development and with so many new initiatives and requirements to be incorporated into classroom teaching and assessment, this resource gives instructional leaders, staff developers, teacher leaders, and consultants everything they need to successfully guide staff to greater effectiveness and ultimately benefit student achievement. The book is built around four critical roles of the staff developer, provides the knowledge base, skills, and tools for success, and includes reproducibles for helping staff process and transfer new learning. This rich resource also presents important information about customizing professional development for the needs of adult learners, sustaining and extending new strengths, and promoting the critical transfer of new learning into practice. Strategies and questions to promote reflective processing are threaded throughout.--Publisher's description.
