Big Idea #1 - A Framework for Creating Professional Learning Plans
Effective professional learning for educators impacts student outcomes. But, how do professional learning providers get started in developing plans? Learning Forward, a professional association for educator professional development, created a meaningful framework that takes you step-by-step through the process of developing a comprehensive professional learning plan for schools and districts. If you plan professional learning for educators, you won’t want to miss this resource!
Big Idea #2 - Grounded in Evidence
A primary component of the Every Student Succeeds Act is utilizing evidence-based programs and practices.
