others in the school community; reflects best available research and
practice in teaching, learning, and leadership; enables teachers to
develop further expertise in subject content, teaching strategies, uses
of technologies, and other essential elements in teaching to high
standards; promotes continuous inquiry and improvement embedded in the
daily life of schools; is planned collaboratively by those who will
participate in and facilitate that development; requires substantial
time and other resources; is driven by a coherent long-term plan; is
evaluated ultimately on the basis of its impact on teacher
effectiveness and student learning; and uses this assessment to guide
subsequent professional development efforts.
