• Professional Development Needs Assessment

How often have we all heard the statement, "The central office has no idea what we need to help us become better teachers." Or, "Here we go again: Professional Development that we can check off that we attended, but shows no real tie to what we are doing in the classroom?" Using the tool from the article, do a walk-through of your building and check the indicators against what you see happening in classrooms.

Submit a one- to two-page paper that summarizes what you have found and what needs to happen going forward.

Your assignment is due at the end of Week 7.
