Professional Development Questionaire

Effective professional development is based on addressing the identified needs of the participants. Collecting and analyzing data prior to creating the professional development presentation is an important step in the professional development process. Once professional development has been delivered it is important to determine if the instruction has met learner needs or if further training is required. Results from satisfaction surveys can also help in the process of modifying presentations for more effective implementation in the future.

For this assignment, create two data collection tools: a needs assessment and a satisfaction survey.

Needs Assessment Survey

The purpose of the needs assessment survey is to discover what professional development topics your colleagues believe would be most beneficial to them.

Create a list of at least 15 suggested topics that are appropriate for your school and are specific enough to address in a single professional development session. Choose one topic related to learner’s rights and teacher responsibilities (e.g., educational equity, appropriate education for learners with disabilities, confidentiality, privacy, appropriate treatment of learners, reporting in situations related to possible child abuse).

Using a 1-5 Likert Scale, create a survey that could be distributed to your colleagues via an electronic survey platform.

Satisfaction Survey

A satisfaction survey is designed to assess the level of participant satisfaction with a professional development session. Develop a generic survey using a 1-5 Likert Scale that could solicit feedback following any professional development session.

Include the following:

  • At least 3-5 questions to evaluate the quality and relevance of the information presented.
  • Minimum of 3-5 questions to evaluate the effectiveness of the presentation and the presenter.
  • At least one open-ended response soliciting qualitative feedback.

Prepare your survey to be distributed via an electronic survey platform.

Submit links to your online surveys along with a 250-500 word rationale for your design choices, including the following:

  • How are the topics you suggested relevant to your particular school or district?
  • What law is related to learners’ right and teacher responsibilities for the chosen topic (e.g., educational equity, appropriate education for learners with disabilities, confidentiality, privacy, appropriate treatment of learners, reporting in situations related to possible child  ) and how does your school or district implement the law?
  • Why you believe the tools you developed may elicit valid and reliable data?

Support this answer with 3-5 scholarly resources.

While APA format is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and in-text citations and references should be presented using APA documentation guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.

Classroom Observation – Luther

CLASSROOM OBSERVATION:

Sasha Luther exhibits the importance of group collaboration, risk-taking, and positive reinforcement is this video of her fifth-grade mathematics class. Take note of her classroom organization, use of student-to-student praise, and different types of grouping that encourages student engagement.

TASK- View video and complete observation reflection

Effective teachers always reflect on the lesson, and lesson outcomes. Listen as the teacher reflects on this lesson, and compare it to the responses you have written on the observation worksheet. Use both the teacher’s reflections and your own observation when writing your overall observational reflection.

Classroom Management Plan Components

Communication with Families – Write a 250-500 word email to the families of your future students in which you introduce yourself. Include your professional background and provide a brief overview of your teaching philosophy. Identify three ways you will communicate with the families to establish open communication.

Classroom Management Evaluation: Write a 250-500 word evaluation of the effects of professional decisions and actions on students, families, and other professionals in the learning community. Explain how you will actively seek input from families, peers, and the community to grow professionally and improve classroom management. Include a summary of legal obligations in responding to student behavior and equity that you have read during your research.

How will you design a team-based compensation system such that free riders on the team cannot take advantage of the system?

You  must provide at least one references in APA format at the end of your  first post. You must utilize this reference to support an original  thought or idea you propose within your response. You  cannot receive full credit for number of postings if your contributions  were insignificant, without reasoning, or showed little effort. Answer  the following questions in your discussion.

Discussion questions (you must answer all parts of each question):

1.  Suppose you are a manager at a low-budget healthcare setting, such as a  local health department. How will you recruit new staff and motivate  current employees when competitors in the area are able to pay 30 to 40  percent more than your organization can?

2.  Suppose you are a staff nurse in a hospital that uses an incentive  compensation system. Do you have an obligation to disclose the nature of  the compensation arrangement with patients? If so, how should this  information be communicated, and by whom?

3. How will you design a team-based compensation system such that free riders on the team cannot take advantage of the system?

4.  For a four-person surgical group, what kind of formula may be devised  to fairly and consistently measure and reward productivity? What changes  may be needed if one surgeon decides to perform more office work and  less surgery?
