This look at two award-winning programs at Hungerford School in Staten Island, New York, and at Montview Elementary School in Aurora, Colorado might provide some insight. Ask Dr. Mary McInerney, the principal of Hungerford School in Staten Island, New York, what makes the school's staff development program successful, and she replies, "The staff. They are responsible." Dr. McInerney credits a unique degree of staff involvement for creating the teacher development program that made Hungerford one of six schools and two school districts nationwide to be honored this year by U.S. Secretary of Education Richard W. Riley as part of

http://olam.ed.asu.edu/epaa/v4n2.html

Extractions: Abstract: It is argued here that staff development in the public elementary and secondary schools of the United States is misguided in both policy and practice. In its current form it represents an imperfect consumer market in which "proof of purchase" substitutes for investment in either school improvement or individual development. A policy model based on investment in school improvement is shown, in which different assumptions about how to improve schools are linked to different alternatives for the design and implementation of staff development. These are argued to be based on an investment rather than consumption model. Public policy about staff development for teachers is confused by both lack of clear purpose and by unsatisfactory decision criteria. Lanier and Little (1986) concluded that "staff development has not generally been the product of coherent policy, nor has it been systematically integrated with institutional priorities for curriculum and instructional improvement" (p. 562). Consequently, policy makers have little opportunity to assess either costs or benefits of what is a large public investment. Nonetheless they continue to view staff development-sometimes called continuing education, in-service training, or professional development-as a basic tool for changing teacher behaviors, and therefore schools. The view may be misplaced or wrong-headed but it prevails.

Extractions: Given the pace of change in America's public schools, meaningful staff learning must become a priority. The body of human knowledge is expanding new developments in such fields as technology, geo-politics, and scienceespecially neuroscience. It's impossible to learn in college everything one needs to know to be a teacher. Good professional development programs can reinvigorate teachers. Poor ones can demoralize them. Any organization that expects significant change in how it does business needs to invest in preparing staff for new goals, objectives, procedures, etc. The most effective professional development is research-based Quality professional development requires a commitment of money and time. There is an emerging consensus on what are the critical components of the design and conduct of professional learning job embedded, long-term and in-depth, content focused, and engaging.

For an overview of current research, see: ED 370674 Training for Quality: Improving Early Childhood Programs through Systematic Inservice Training. ERIC Clearinghouse on Teaching and Teacher Education, Washington, DC. The challenges and rewards of the teaching profession have never been greater. The range and type of information that students need to know far exceeds that of previous decades, and the academic expectations for all students are increasing in virtually every state and community. The nation's schools are more racially, ethnically, and linguistically diverse than at any other point in history, and there is much discussion about how all students will meet the emerging subject-matter standards. Most school systems seek to transform their schools to respond to a host of issues, ranging from these increased student expectations to the conditions that students must confront in their communities. It is clear that caring and competent teachers are vital to the success of each of these initiatives and equally clear that preservice and inservice teacher professional development must change to equip teachers to meet these challenges.
