A new framework for teachers’ professional development

Sancar, Raziye, Atal, Deniz, Deryakulu, Deniz·2021·Teaching and Teacher Education

Abstract

Abstract Teachers’ professional development (PD) is crucial to improving student outcomes. Because PD involves a multidimensional structure and changes across a teacher’s professional life, defining PD is complicated, and existing studies fail to meaningfully define it. To offer a working framework for optimal PD, we reviewed existing articles on the subject in four key journals in teacher education. We found that effective PD is attentive to assessment, research scale, duration, comprehensiveness, dissemination, context, support and control, and collaboration. We situate this conceptual framework as a new take on pre-existing definitions of PD that advises how to more effectively apply PD.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
