This book is intended as a guide for practitioners interested in forming alliances within their community to support teacher and student success. Under the umbrella of a professional development school (PDS), school principals willing to engage in this type of partnership have access to a framework for school renewal. Within this school/university framework lie four critical factors that transform the ways in which teachers’ teach and schools’ function. The professional development school model takes a holistic approach to revitalizing schools by sharing knowledge, resources, practices, and the collaborative efforts of P-12 educators and the higher education community. Through the collective wisdom of P-12 and university educators, PDSs provide a new way to think about teaching and a rich environment for learning.
Industry Reviews
At last we have a complete and authentic description of what Professional Development Schools can accomplish. From its history, descriptions of powerful partnerships, and their inevitable challenges, we learn about how to improve both schools and universities for teachers and their students. This book shows us both the power and the promise of Professional Development Schools as a model for change.
