MODULE FOUR (L.EVERLEY)


What are your thoughts about effective professional development strategies?
Professional teacher development is necessary for teachers and administrators. The development strategies are designed to help teaching professionals keep up-to-date on new teaching strategies. The biggest complaint about professional development is the follow up process. Teachers need more instruction in the classroom on how to implement the strategies. The biggest obstacles for administrators are getting older teachers to change their ideas to new ones.


What is the PD strategy or strategies you plan to use in your Technology Initiative?
The PD strategy I would use is coaching and mentoring. The idea behind this concept is to have experts to work with all teachers from beginners to veterans on new strategies and ideas. It is also necessary to give teachers and students access to the right equipment in the classroom.
