1 Individual Professional Development Planning for Teachers
School District of Lee County Individual Professional Development Planning for Teachers Florida Statute Requirements ( F.S.) Requires an Individual Professional Development Plan (IPDP) to be established and maintained for each instructional employee. This statute also requires evaluations of District, School, and Individual Professional Development for each district every 3 years. Our District has been selected for evaluation in April of this year. Certain schools will be selected at random and, within each school, the principal and 5 teachers, selected at random, will be interviewed on their school and individual professional development.

2 What is an Individual Professional Development Plan (IPDP)?
An IPDP is a personal plan which represents explicit learning goals. It focuses on improving student learning as the overall goal. It should be aligned with students, school, and district needs. It provides structure for professional growth. Emphasize bullet two – focus on student learning/improvement as the overall goal

3 State Criteria for the IPDP
Goal(s) Specific to the students to whom the teacher is assigned Measurable improvements in student performance Method of evaluation that is used within the school or classroom Strategies Clearly defined training and objectives identified The State identifies these four criteria as the four components that are to be included in a Teacher IPDP

4 Planned Improvements through Professional Development
Identify Needs and Develop Plan Complete and Implement Training Make Instructional Decisions The IPDP process is a PDSA/PDCA process that can be used to improvement your classroom systems and procedures to ensure that students are learning and that the strategies learned in training are having a positive impact on student learning. If they don’t have a positive impact, the strategies should be discontinued. Evaluate Student Learning

5 PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN
The School District of Lee County PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN Form is located on Personnel Services website: Our District IPDP Form is shown here. This form is posted on the CSDC Website under the Professional Development System link, Individual Teacher Level Information link, and also on Personnel Services website. The first section if for your basic information. The new form online allows you to type your document and then save to your location and print. Let’s look at how the four required components can be included in this form.

6 Identifying Your Goals
First Priority for Goals Tested subject area(s) for which students in your classroom need improvement. Standards that you identify as needing improvement based on current student data. The primary focus for teacher professional development goals will be the learning needs of the students currently in the teacher’s classroom.

7 Developing SMART Goal(s)
Write a SMART Goal S – Student-Focused M – Measurable A – Attainable R – Results-Oriented T – Time-bound Goals should be SMART S – Student-focused – the needs of the students in the teachers classroom must be the first consideration for the teacher’s professional development M – Measurable – concrete criteria should be set for measuring whether the goal has been attained A – Attainable and Aligned- goals that are written are often met and should be written to approach or reach school, state, and national goals R – Results-Oriented – goals should be focused on the results we are trying to achieve T – Time-bound – goals must be reviewed and evaluated before the end of the year, typically at evaluation time. Results must be available and aligned to the timeframe that is set.

8 Creating a Goal Statement(s)
_____% or ______# of ______students will __________ as measured on _______ by _________. Here is a simple statement that can be used as a framework for writing IPDP goals. Examples follow.

9 Creating Goal Statement(s)
95% of my 9th grade students will score a 3.5 or higher as measured on the School Mock Writing Assessment in March. Relates to my students’ learning Measurable Evaluation Method Sample goal statement for a high school English class.

10 Creating AYP Goal Statements
100% of my ELL students who scored in the red or yellow Success Zone on the Broad Screen Assessment during Assessment Period 1 will improve by at least one (1) Success Zone in Assessment Period 3. Relates to my students’ learning Represents students in my classroom Is measurable Includes the Evaluation Method Sample AYP goal statement for an elementary class in reading. AYP goals are very important at the classroom level to ensure that the school and district are meeting the needs of all students in all subgroups.

11 What’s Wrong With These Goals?
My students will increase their scores in math. I will implement a Cooperative Discipline program in my class. 100% of my students will return their textbooks at the end of the year. Criteria for Goal Statements Specific to my students’ learning needs Measurable improvements in student performance Includes a method of evaluation Ask teachers to identify what is wrong with each goal statement, in terms of being a SMART goal.

12 Why focus on Teacher Professional Development?
Research shows that each dollar spent on recruiting high-quality teachers and deepening their knowledge and skills nets greater gains in student learning than any other use of an education dollar. (Ferguson, Greenwald, Hedges, & Laine as cited in Darling-Hammond, 1997, p.1) Why is so much emphasis placed on teacher professional development? One reason - Teacher expertise, teacher quality, is the single most important determinant of student achievement.

13 Professional Development
*District Inservice *School Inservice *Professional Learning Communities *Lesson Study *College Coursework *Independent Study Identify the Professional Development needs which may include, but are not limited to the following: *District Inservice *School Inservice *Professional Learning Communities *Lesson Study *College Coursework *Independent Study

14 Developing Strategies
Consider reading or research-based instructional strategies Focus on SSS, subject content, instructional practices, technology, assessment, data analysis and classroom management Include specific outcomes from training that you will implement Teachers must strategies from training that will be implemented to meet the goals.

15 Defining Your Strategies
EXAMPLE Implement Training Outcomes of Six Traits Writing Ideas, Organization, Voice, Word Choice, Sentence Fluency, and Conventions Six-Trait analytic rubric to assess writing Strategies of modeling and revision to improve student writing Monitor progress through monthly classroom assessments

16 Identifying Documentation Methods & Dates
Inservice Record (to document training attendance) Lesson Plans (to document implementation of training strategies) Pinnacle Classroom Grades/ Records Classroom data graph Summer, 2011 Ongoing Documentation methods should be identified to verify attendance at training, implementation of the strategies in the classroom, and the results gathers after implementation. Pinnacle Report

17 RESULTS

18 Plan, Deliver, Follow Up, Evaluate
This is the planning part of the IPDP. Do these sections now. Then implement your plan and track student progress throughout the year! Then the End of Year Outcomes are completed following the review of the results to report what happened as a result of the implementation. The outcomes are completed at the end of the year!

19 To be completed at end of year prior to annual assessment
RESULTS Writing Example: END-OF-YEAR OUTCOMES: On the school-wide writing assessment in March. 23% of my students received a 5.0 or higher 25% of my students received a 4.0 or 4.5 50% of my students received a 3.5 = 98% of my students scored a 3.5 or higher (Attach additional page if necessary) Here is an example of End of Year Outcomes for the writing goal sample. To be completed at end of year prior to annual assessment

20 To be completed at end of year prior to annual assessment
RESULTS AYP Example: END-OF-YEAR OUTCOMES: On the Broad Screen Assessment for Assessment Period 3: 28% of my ELL students who were in the red Success Zone moved to the green Success Zone. 38% of my ELL students who were in the red Success Zone moved to the yellow Success Zone. 30% of my ELL students who were in the yellow Success Zone moved to the green Success Zone. = 96% of my underperforming ELL students improved by at least one (1) Success Zone. (Attach additional page if necessary) And here is one for the AYP goal sample. To be completed at end of year prior to annual assessment

21 REFLECTION

22 Reflecting on Results Once your IPDP is completed, it is important to:
Reflect on the results of the evaluation (end of year outcomes) Use the results as part of the needs assessment process for next year’s IPDP development Modify or discontinue the use of the professional development strategies if they did not demonstrate improvements in student performance. One of the most important aspects of professional growth is to reflect – this is what creates the real learning!
