Professional Development for Professional Developers
Wolf, Mary Ann
T.H.E. Journal, v31 n12 p30 Jul 2004
During the last year, SETDA tackled the question, "How do you provide professional development to those who typically develop and/or provide the opportunities to others?" Although providing professional development opportunities for administrators and teachers is a primary responsibility of many SETDA members, many state educational technology directors rarely have the opportunity to engage in their own meaningful professional development opportunities. SETDA's Professional Growth Committee teamed with the Education Development Center (EDC), with funding from the AT&T Foundation, to develop an online course tailored specifically to the needs of SETDA members. The committee was adamant that SETDA members needed a chance to explore their own professional growth beyond job-embedded training. The "Leading in Technology" (LIT) course focused specifically on leadership. It is important to note that these individuals did not need credits or hours to meet a state or professional requirement; rather, the 30 individuals who decided to take this course did so solely for their own personal and professional growth.
