Overview

In-Depth Professional Development

Teachscape programs of study are yearlong professional learning programs that support deep study of critical content in key areas of concern. Each program of study is customized for the specific needs of the district and schools and includes group learning, online learning, classroom-based applications, as well as ongoing communication and collaboration.

Teachscape programs of study result in measurable outcomes by employing:

• Observation and analysis of classroom videos and student work
• Reflection on the effectiveness of demonstrated teaching strategies
• Professional discussions
• Completion of activities based on best practices modeled in the videos

Districts engaging in Teachscape programs of study can expect that instructional leaders will articulate knowledge of best practices, leading to observable changes in teaching practice in their schools.

All programs of study include participant journals, professional literature, and online resources featuring video case studies, sample student work, research, lesson plans, reflection prompts, and discussion topics.
