PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN

Step I: Preparing to Write the PlanREFLECTION

Reflect and prepare to write your PDP goal in Step II. While reflection is a required step in the PDP process, recording your reflection below is optional.

During my first year of teaching I hope to improve my collaboration with my fellow colleagues. I also hope to become more familiar with the National Common Core Standards.

B. Description of Goal to be Addressed

It is recommended that you use this stem: I will (research, study, learn, apply, etc.) So that (describe what you want to see happening differently with student learning).

I will study and research reading for comprehension techniques in conjunction with the common core standards so that my students will be able to help themselves with new readings based on techniques taught and so that all students will have learned the skills that they will need in the grade across the nation. Review Checklist for Description of the Goal
Did you describe how your goal will impact your professional growth? Did you describe how your professional growth will have an effect on student learning?

C. Rationale for the Goal: Links to Professional Situation and Wisconsin Educator Standards
Based on your reflection, describe the reason for your goal. Describe how your goal is linked to your educational situation, and write out the Wisconsin Educator Standards (two or more) that you will focus on to meet your goal.

My reason for this goal is because the ability to fully comprehend a piece of writing is a difficult skill to acquire and is needed no matter what subject is being taught. I will focus on Wisconsin State Standard; 1 (Content: Teachers know the subjects they are teaching), 3 (Diversity: Teachers understand that children learn differently), and 4 (Instructional Strategies: Teachers know how to teach). Review Checklist for Rationale for the Goal
Does the rationale tell how your goal connects to your school, teaching, administrative, or pupil services situation? (Choose the category that applies to your situation) Did you write out the Wisconsin Educator Standards that you will focus on to meet your goal? (must select two or more)

D. Plan for Assessing and Documenting the Goal

Record the anticipated methods you will use to assess your professional growth and the effect on student learning. It may be helpful to review steps III and IV when writing your assessment plan as they outline what is necessary when documenting your completed plan.

I will meet with colleagues to discuss my lessons and assessments and how they meet/ dont meet the National Common Core Standards. I will complete seminars on reading techniques. I will review my assessments of my class to see if the techniques taught are working and in conjunction with my results I will discuss the results and assessments of my students in my colleagues classrooms. Review Checklist for Plan for Assessing and Documenting Achievement of the Goal
Did you include in the plan the anticipated methods you will use to assess your professional growth? Did you include in the plan the anticipated methods you will use to assess the effect on student learning?

Review Checklist for Objectives, Activities, Timeline, and Plan for Collaboration
1. Objectives Did you include objectives that directly address the goal? Did you include objectives that are observable and verifiable? 2. Description of Activities and Timelines Did you align your activities with your goal and objectives? Did you extend the activities through multiple years of the licensure cycle? Did you state a timeline for completing the activities? 3. Plan for Collaboration Did you include collaboration with others in your plan?

Initial educators must submit Step II, A-E, to a PDP Team for Goal Approval. Step III: Annual Review of the PDP
Annual reviews are done in years two, three, and four and will be submitted as part of your completed plan in the last year of your licensure cycle.

Return to Step II E and enter completion dates for each activity completed. Write a reflection in year two summarizing the progress made towards completing your goal. Indicate, in your reflection, how you grew professionally and/or how your professional growth had an effect on student learning. Write any revisions to your objectives or activities in the revision area. Return to this step annually until your PDP is complete and ready to be submitted for verification.

Initial Educators may complete a 3, 4, or 5 year plan. One annual review is required for a three-year plan, two annual reviews are required for a four-year plan, and three annual reviews are required for a five-year plan. If there is a substantial change to your GOAL, you must complete and resubmit section II A-II E to a team for review and approval of the new goal. Professional Educators must complete a five-year plan with three annual reviews.

Reflection (Year 2) Date: Date:

Revision (if needed)

Well the implementation of universal reading strategies assessment was harder than I thought it was. It was hard to accurately assess the students progress or lack of progress in each class. Also, the results based off of the state standardized test was unreliable. Students who routinely do well informally did poorly in the high stress situation.

Reflection (Year 3) Date: Date:

Revision (if needed)

The use of the National Common Core Standards is widely used and became a help in the creation of scaffolded knowledge. It made collaboration between subjects easier. Also it made the planning of units easier as it was well establish as to what the students walking in the door had already learned.
Reflection (Year 4) Date: Date: Revision (if needed)

Review Checklist for Annual Review

Did you include in your reflection how you grew professionally and/or how your professional growth had an effect on student learning? Did you include any revisions to your objectives or activities? Did you fill in completion dates for activities? (refer to Step II E of your plan)

Step IV: Documentation of Completion of the PDP

Your PDP must include 3-5 pieces of evidence that document professional growth and the effect on student learning. Number and label each piece of evidence (i.e., 1. Student test score analysis). You may use a single piece of evidence that focuses solely on professional growth or the effect on student learning as long as your completed plan includes both types of documented eviden ce. When attaching evidence, please include the number and label entered below.

1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

Number and label each piece of evidence. Indicate whether each piece of evidence documents professional growth, the effect on student learning, or both. Describe each piece of evidence identifying what is documented and the relationship of the evidence to the goal.
