Effective Professional Learning
In most schools, a large gap exists between what is known
about professional learning that affects teaching and
improves student achievement and the professional
development that teachers and principals regularly
experience. The solution to [this] problem, I believe, is high-
quality, school-based professional learning and collaborative
work that affects all teachers virtually every day.
