[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a teacher, 10 PD days in late August is a joke of a proposal. And what, no PD during the rest of the year? By day 3 of consecutive PD, everyone is overloaded and nothing is going to stick. Does any industry or profession expect their professionals to take all their PD in 2 straight weeks? No, Continuing Education is most effective in small doses at regular intervals. Comment to have the PD through the year, please!! It's helpful to us to have days to reflect and think. Without that reflection and planning, lessons are going to be less effective and tailored to your child and his/her classmates.[/quote] There is only one week of PD in August (except for new teachers). [/quote] One of the proposals in the survey was 2 weeks before school[/quote] Oh, ok. Ten days at the beginning of the year could be helpful for schools that do home visits. [/quote]
