The Coherent System and the Empowered Individual: Continuing Professional Development for Teachers in Scotland.
Livingston, Kay; Robertson, John
European Journal of Teacher Education, v24 n2 p183-94 2001
Summarizes Scotland's various forms of continuing teacher professional development (CPD) from 1970-00, noting calls for a more coherent framework, suggesting the need for greater understanding of CPD characteristics, recommending a scenario that accommodates individual teachers' and schools' needs, and emphasizing that the nature and method of CPD should be decided cooperatively between all concerned parties and leave teachers feeling empowered.
