If teachers know best about professional learning… let's follow their lead.

I think my educational reading should count as professional development and I should be able to go visit other innovative classrooms that I'm interested in .  Tosha Caston-Smith shared with you:   If teachers know best about professional learning… let's follow their lead. teachingquality.org - The Boston Consulting Group (BCG) selected an apt title for its study of American professional development released on Tuesday: "Teachers Know Best." BCG's study, funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, investigates the contours of our nation's dysfunctional approach to teacher learning (and, by extension, leadership). In my last blog post, I described the woeful state of professional development in the United States. The study's results—based on extensive educator surveys and financial analysis of expenditures—support that sordid narrative. Available on the App Store.
