Professional DevelopmentThomas Guskey – What Makes Professional Development
Effective?
“A couple of years ago, I identified thirteen lists of characteristics of
effective professional development that had been assembled by
different professional organizations and research groups. In
analyzing these lists, I found very little consensus. There wasn't even
agreement on the criteria for effectiveness. Some lists were based on
the concurrence opinions among researchers, others used teacher
self-reports, and only a few looked at impact on student learning. My
conclusion was that we may not have a true consensus on what
makes professional development effective, and that moving toward
one may be more complicated than most people think.”

Resource-based Learning
In our proposal we called this Action Learning. We need a common language, so we have named what we
really meant as Resourced-based Learning.
Robyn will talk with you about this.
