Reform OF and AS Professional Development.
Sykes, Gary
Phi Delta Kappan, v77 n7 p464-67 Mar 1996

Existing professional development resources are meager and ineffectively deployed. This article introduces a special "Kappan" section that explores promising alternative practices, focusing on underlying assumptions, descriptions, and emerging problems. (MLH)
