  2. Let’s Get Started . . . Introductions and • Learning Objectives • The Learner will be able to . . . • Understand the purpose and key components of the revisedStandards for Professional Learning. • See the Standards in action in a school setting. • Explore potential Learning Designs that might be used for professional learning goals. • Examine Innovation Configuration (IC) Maps to support effectiveness of professional learning.

  3. Organization 9

  4. Quick Reference Guide Layout • About the Standards • STEM: Professional learning that increases educator effectiveness and results for all students . . . • Seven Standards • Four Pre-requisites • Relationship between professional learning and student results • Suggestions for Use

  6. Learning Designs Effective planning for professional learning: Matching an array of learning designs to educators’ needs Practicing new skills to to Implementing the change with fidelity. As they move from Developing new knowledge

  7. LearningDesigns No SINGLEmethod of professional development will help all teachers develop the knowledge and skills they need to reach every student. Research has shown that it takes multiple professional learning designs to build teachers’ knowledge base, develop new skills, and create the dispositions teachers need to be able to implement new content standards.

  8. Learning Designs • Each phase of this process • requires different designs. • What Can Learning Designs Do? • Build educators’ knowledge base about content and/or practice. • Develop educators’ instructional, facilitative, and questioning. • Support teachers as they use their new skills in the classroom.

  9. Innovation ConfigurationsICs What Are They and Why Use Them? What are the five functions of IC maps? What do we do with IC Maps? What are the major elements of an IC map?

  10. Five Functions 1 A clear and richly descriptive vision of what the standards look like in action (in schools, districts, state departments, etc.,—wherever professional learning occurs) in order to support the continuous learning of educators

  11. Five Functions 2 A guide to design professional learning that explains not only what the standards look like in operation, but also how to implement them

  12. Five Functions 3 A guide to create precise plans and access sufficient guidance for implementing the standards in all professional learning and in the work of those who are responsible for all aspects of professional learning

  13. Five Functions 4 5 A tool to assess implementation of the standards A tool to improve the quality and results of professional learning

  14. Roles of ICs

  15. Structure of an IC Map Across the Top: Role and Standard Key ideas (Ex. 5.1) Variations of implementation practice (Levels 1 – 6 as needed) Desired outcome (Ex. 5.1.1) Components (Bulleted descriptions)

  16. Variations 1 2 3 4 5 6 NONEXISTENT PRACTICE IDEAL PRACTICE Levels of Implementation Practice

  17. IC Activity Purpose: To become familiar with the content and structure of an IC Maps (Learning Designs –Teacher Role) How might this influence professional learning in your setting?

  18. In groups, read and compare the levels of each desired outcome for the Learning Designs IC Map for the Teacher Role. IC Activity andDiscussion Group 1: Use 5.1.1 and 5.1.2 Group 2: Use 5.2.1, 5.2.2 and 5.2.3 Group 3: Use 5.2.4 and 5.2.5 Group 4: Use 5.3.1 and 5.3.2
