Editor's Notes
- Lenoir County Public Schools - Federal Programs Meeting Tezella Cline - Professional Development - May 29, 2008 My name is Tezella Cline and I serve as Professional Development Specialist for Lenoir County Public Schools
- Lenoir County Public Schools - Federal Programs Meeting Tezella Cline - Professional Development - May 29, 2008 Today I will share the current Professional Development Standards, the goals and characteristics of High-Quality Professional Development and I will highlight the key initiatives for that we are focusing on this school year. I will also provide examples of how our Professional Development offerings support our most at-risk NCLB Subgroups and provide information about how we offer district-level funding for teachers to attend key state conferences. I also wish to note that planning for Professional Development is ongoing and we are currently in the process of planning for the 2011 – 2012 school year .
- Lenoir County Public Schools - Federal Programs Meeting Tezella Cline - Professional Development - May 29, 2008 The NC Professional Development Standards state that the goal of Professional Development is to help educators in developing the knowledge, skills, behaviors, and insights needed to become effective teachers in the 21 st Century. The Instructional Effectiveness Team supports this premise and uses the NC Professional Development Standards and the 21 st Century Framework to guide district-level decisions concerning professional development for Lenoir County Public Schools. The Standards are organized according to Context Standards (the organization, system, culture), Process Standards (the how), and content Standards (the What)
- Based on research by the Professional Development Organization, Learning Forward … formerly the National Staff Development Council, the standards provide the vision and framework for making professional development more responsive to the learning needs of both educators and students. *********Background notes: Do Not Read******** DO NOT READ…… CONTEXT STANDARDS Learning Communities: Staff development that improves the learning of all students organizes adults into learning communities whose goals are aligned with those of the school and district. Leadership: Staff development that improves the learning of all students requires skillful school and district leaders who guide continuous instructional improvement. Resources: Staff development that improves the learning of all students requires resources to support adult learning and collaboration. PROCESS STANDARDS Data-Driven:Staff development that improves the learning of all students uses disaggregated student data to determine adult learning priorities, monitor progress, and help sustain continuous improvement.Evaluation:Staff development that improves the learning of all students uses multiple sources of information to guide improvement and demonstrate its impact. Research-Based:Staff development that improves the learning of all students prepares educators to apply research to decision making. Design:Staff development that improves the learning of all students uses learning strategies appropriate to the intended goal. Learning:Staff development that improves the learning of all students applies knowledge about human learning and change. Collaboration:Staff development that improves the learning of all students provides educators with the knowledge and skills to collaborate. CONTENT STANDARDS Equity:Staff development that improves the learning of all students prepares educators to understand and appreciate all students, create safe, orderly, and supportive learning environments, and hold high expectations for their academic achievement. Quality Teaching: Staff development that improves the learning of all students deepens educators’ content knowledge, provides them with research-based instructional strategies to assist students in meeting rigorous academic standards, and prepares them to use various types of classroom assessments appropriately. Family Involvement:Staff development that improves the learning of all students provides educators with knowledge and skills to involve families and other stakeholders appropriately. Lenoir County Public Schools - Federal Programs Meeting Tezella Cline - Professional Development - May 29, 2008
- Lenoir County Public Schools - Federal Programs Meeting Tezella Cline - Professional Development - May 29, 2008 Here you see the goals of HQ PD. We intend to support teachers, administrators and others so that they can positively impact student achievement and prepare students to be successful in the 21 st Century and beyond.
- Through research and active engagement in our District Leadership Team Professional Learning Community, (IET team) we are focusing our work and decisions about professional learning on what research says High Quality Professional Development should look like. This slide shows the characteristics of High-Quality Professional Development. Lenoir County Public Schools - Federal Programs Meeting Tezella Cline - Professional Development - May 29, 2008
- As you know there are many documents that have been developed to support the transition. One important one is the Standards document… The Common Core is made up of the English and Math Curriculum Standards.
- Lenoir County Public Schools - Federal Programs Meeting Tezella Cline - Professional Development - May 29, 2008 Today, we are faced with many changes. This visual shows the 21 st Century Skills Framework. Professional Development must now be focused in these areas for our educators. In addition to these skills, teachers have been trained on their new evaluation instrument . This instrument is based on the new North Carolina Professional Teaching Standards as well as the 21 st Century Framework. So, as you can see, with so many changes, supporting our teachers and others in High Quality Professional Development is more important now than ever before and professional development is what drives every other initiative. In order to be considered High Quality, PD experiences must be clearly designed to address student academic needs. It must engage teachers to a level that will allow them to return to their classrooms and infuse the new skills, knowledge, and tools into their curriculum. In addition, there must be meaningful follow up after the professional development experience. The training or experience must occur over an extended period of time (such as a full semester or a full year) rather than be a one-time event. Finally, we must strive to collect data to address how the training impacts student achievement.
- Along with the new focus on literacy and the graduation rate, comes additional requirements for educators.
- Workshops and trainings for teachers, administrators and others may be presented in various formats and locations. We participate in Out-of –district activities, District activities, webinars, and online courses and workshops… Our largest group of workshops fall under the category of “district activity”. In Lenoir County Public Schools, we use the SEA System. This is an internet -based system that allows us to organize, advertise and track workshops that we offer employees at the district level. This system also allows us to electronically send CEU data for teachers and others to our Human Resources Department for posting. In addition, this system also provides us with professional development data that we use for planning and evaluation of workshops. Here you can see a sample report. This is the Activities-at-a-Glance report which shows all of the activities for the year thus far. Currently this is a 12 page document. Lenoir County Public Schools - Federal Programs Meeting Tezella Cline - Professional Development - May 29, 2008
- We determine our PD based on information from a variety of sources. These Data Sources include: Student Test Data Surveys (principals, teachers (counselors, media specialists), Federal Programs, PD Surveys, Technology Surveys, SEA System Data) DPI Initiatives School Needs as indicated by principals and by teachers IET Recommendations Observation data AdvancED Recommendations Data from the surveys and from all of the other sources help to guide our decisions about PD. The Professional Development and Federal Survey for this year was sent out Feb. 3, so we are currently collecting data. Lenoir County Public Schools - Federal Programs Meeting Tezella Cline - Professional Development - May 29, 2008
- Our Professional Development Handbook was revised this year to reflect the new standards and the requirements of High-Quality Professional Development . Lenoir County Public Schools - Federal Programs Meeting Tezella Cline - Professional Development - May 29, 2008
