7 PART TWO Framing the Work 7 Copyright 2011 New Teacher Center. All Rights Reserved.
8 Effective Professional Development 1. The duration of PD must be significant and ongoing to allow time for teachers to learn a new strategy and grapple w/ implementation. 2. There must be support for a teacher during the implementation stage that addresses the specific challenges of changing classroom practice. 3. Teachers initial exposure to a concept should not be passive, but rather engage teachers through varied approaches so they can participate actively in making sense of a new practice. 4. Modeling has been found to be highly effective in helping teachers understand a new practice. 5. The content presented to teachers shouldn t be generic, but instead specific to the discipline (for MS/HS teachers) or grade-level (for ES teachers).

9 Findings on Coaching Teachers are 6 times more likely to change or implement new classroom practices when provided coaching. Coaching requires sanctioned time. Collaborative planning and co-development of curriculum and instruction are the most powerful components of peer coaching. Learning to provide meaningful feedback requires extensive training.

10 Lessons from the Field COACHING CAN BE A COST-EFFECTIVE ALTERNATIVE TO TRADITIONAL PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT, BUT ONLY IF STRUCTURED APPROPRIATELY: Instructional coaches are selected based on ability to teach adults in addition to ability to teach students. Roles and responsibilities are clear. Teachers and coaches plan together. Coaching is tied to classroom practice. Coaches report to a district curriculum director.
