Transforming Professional Development into Student ResultsASCD Talks with Author Douglas B. Reeves

Transforming Professional Development into Student Results

(April 2010 Member Book)

 

Synopsis

How can we create and sustain professional learning programs that actually lead to improved student achievement? In this thoughtful and informative guide for teachers, administrators, and policymakers, Douglas Reeves provides answers. First he casts a critical eye on professional learning that is inconsistent, unfocused, and ultimately ineffective and explains why elaborate planning documents and brand-name programs are not enough to achieve desired outcomes.

This interview was conducted by ASCD associate editor Leah Lakins.
