Answer to Question 1

Effective PD tasks:
 consider the needs and learning styles of teachers
 present information in authentic contexts with direct links to classrooms and provide feedback while teachers try new strategies in their classrooms
 allow time for reflection and experience
 are social in nature, allowing teachers to interact with colleagues and mentors
 present ways to get from A to B, not just new ideas that require an instant and complete transformation
 focus on tools that teachers use for their own productivity
 present information in a variety of formats
 are made at the teacher's level. Teachers are more likely to use information that is for their grade and content than that which they have to adapt or revise to use.
 continue over time

The most important aspect of PD tasks is that they result in improved student learning and performance over time.
