Description:  The goal of professional development in schools is to accelerate student learning. It should focus on changing what is taught and how it is taught. An effective staff-development program requires a great deal of time, effort and coordination in planning, implementation and follow-up. This guide contains a step-by-step approach that school leaders can use in improving the impact of professional development on teachers and students. Each step or activity is an important element of a successful program. By combining the elements, school leaders can support teachers as they improve their effectiveness and raise student achievement.
