Trygstad, Peggy J.; Banilower, Eric R.; Smith, P. Sean; Nelson, Courtney L. – Horizon Research, Inc., 2014
The logic model that implicitly drives most professional development (PD) efforts asserts that PD leads to changes in teacher knowledge and beliefs, which leads to improved classroom practice, and ultimately, better student outcomes. However, efforts to study the impacts of PD programs are often hampered by the scarcity of high-quality…
