Book Synopsis The Impact of PDS Partnerships in Challenging Times by : Pixita del Prado Hill
Download or read book The Impact of PDS Partnerships in Challenging Times written by Pixita del Prado Hill and published by IAP. This book was released on 2021-01-01 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Impact of PDS Partnerships in Challenging Times is the follow up to Doing PDS: Stories and Strategies from Successful Clinically Rich Practice (2018). The first book included stories that described our experiences across more than twenty-five years of PDS partnerships. We sought to examine and chronicle the innovative ways we negotiate school-university collaboration while explaining the development of the SUNY Buffalo State PDS consortium. This second volume strives to explore the impact of our endeavors individually at each school/community site and collectively as an entire consortium to point to the important ways that school-university partnership contributes to all stakeholders and where we might do better. SUNY Buffalo State’s PDS roots go back to 1991 with one local school partner. Today this school-university partnership consortium connects with over 100 schools with approximately 45 signed agreements each semester in Western New York, nationally, and internationally. The SUNY Buffalo State PDS consortium is grounded in three frameworks for clinically rich practice: (a) the National Association for Professional Development Schools Nine Essentials (Brindley, Field, & Lesson, 2008); (b) CAEP Standards for Excellence in Educator Preparation, Standard 2 (http://caepnet.org/standards/standard-2, 2018); and (c) the Buffalo State Teacher Education Unit Conceptual Framework (https://epp.buffalostate.edu/conceptualframework, 2018). Through specific examples, each chapter utilizes a case study approach to describe the nature of various partnerships situated in research with a focus on the impact of the partnership. The chapters are intentionally succinct to provide a focused look at a particular partnership activity as each contributes to the larger goals of the entire consortium. Every chapter follows a similar structure – defining a challenge identified by the members of the consortium, a review of the relevant literature, an explanation of how the school/community liaison team responded to the challenge and the data gathered to determine impact, an “impact at a glance” chart to report the findings, and an identification of the necessary next steps in the project.

Book Synopsis PDS and Community Schools by : JoAnne Ferrara
Download or read book PDS and Community Schools written by JoAnne Ferrara and published by IAP. This book was released on 2022-07-01 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How the Professional Development School and Community School strategy might benefit from an integrated perspective serves as the guiding framework for this volume of Research in Professional Development Schools. This book advocates for blending these two approaches to address the needs of P-20 settings and their communities. Because we recognize the inherent strengths in both models, we encouraged chapters that had as a primary focus one or both models as they sought to support teacher preparation and K-12 partners. Subsequently, a series of questions framed the conversation around the potential for combining these models as well as what such an integrated model might present for teacher education programs, K-12 partners, and their communities. Since this volume explores three different aspects of the relationship between Professional Development Schools and Community Schools, a set of guiding questions were offered to guide the specific models addressed.
Book Synopsis Professional Development Schools by : JoAnne Ferrara
Download or read book Professional Development Schools written by JoAnne Ferrara and published by R&L Education. This book was released on 2014-03-04 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is intended as a guide for practitioners interested in forming alliances within their community to support teacher and student success. Under the umbrella of a professional development school (PDS), school principals willing to engage in this type of partnership have access to a framework for school renewal. Within this school/university framework lie four critical factors that transform the ways in which teachers’ teach and schools’ function. The professional development school model takes a holistic approach to revitalizing schools by sharing knowledge, resources, practices, and the collaborative efforts of P-12 educators and the higher education community. Through the collective wisdom of P-12 and university educators, PDSs provide a new way to think about teaching and a rich environment for learning.
Book Synopsis Clinically Based Teacher Education in Action by : Eva Garin
Download or read book Clinically Based Teacher Education in Action written by Eva Garin and published by IAP. This book was released on 2020-04-01 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teacher education in the United States is changing to meet new policy demands for centering clinical practice and developing robust school-university partnerships to better prepare high-quality teachers for tomorrow’s schools. PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT SCHOOLS (PDSs) have recently been cited in national reports as exemplars of high-quality school-university partnerships in the clinical preparation of teachers. According to the National Association for Professional Development Schools, PDSs have Nine Essentials that distinguish them from other school-university collaborations. But even with that guidance, working across the boundaries of schools and universities remains messy, complex, and, quite frankly, hard. That’s why, perhaps, there is such diversity in school-university partnerships. For the last thirty years, educators have been fascinated yet puzzled with how to build PDSs. Clinically Based Teacher Education in Action: Cases from PDSs addresses that perplexity by providing images of the possible in school-university collaboration. Each chapter closely examines one of the NAPDS Nine Essentials and then provides three cases from PDSs that target that particular essential. In this way, readers can see how different PDSs from across the globe are innovating to actualize that essential in PDS development. The editors provide commentary, addressing themes across the three cases. Each chapter ends with questions to start collaborative conversations and a field-based activity meant to propel your PDS work forward.
Book Synopsis A Pathway to PDS Partnership by : Emily Shoemaker
Download or read book A Pathway to PDS Partnership written by Emily Shoemaker and published by IAP. This book was released on 2020-01-01 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Professional Development Schools offer P-12 schools and universities the opportunity to create rich learning environments for students, teacher candidates, teachers, university professors and administrators. The creation of Professional Development Schools requires careful thought and planning by leaders from both institutions who understand the importance of a systemic approach to gathering information that will allow them to build strong, sustainable partnerships. This book is a practical, hands-on guide to exploring and assessing school and university readiness and compatibility to pursue a PDS partnership. The Professional Development School Exploration and Assessment (PDSEA) Protocol provides surveys and focus group interview questions that facilitate the identification of P-12 school and teacher preparation program qualities, characteristics and perceptions to determine institutional compatibility. Collaborative discussion and PDS planning templates provide guidelines for planning new PDSs. Assessment instruments used with the PDSEA Protocol are available online. The authors offer unique insights into Professional Development Schools based on their experiences as educators in elementary, middle school, high school and as university professors who have been active in Professional Development Schools for 13 years. In this book, they share their insights and practical ideas about what it takes to develop viable and sustainable Professional Development Schools. Developed over a period of 8 years in a study that involved three universities and 13 partner schools, the PDSEA Protocol will assist teacher preparation programs, P-12 school districts and individual school sites as they explore, assess and plan school-university partnerships.

Each story provides the reader with practical ideas, procedures and policies that can be implemented by the reader to begin new partnerships or help improve and sustain existing partnerships. Each chapter discusses the rich clinical preparation combined with progressive experiences in PDSs that have made the partnership successful.

Book Synopsis How Do Public Managers Manage? by : Carolyn Ban
Download or read book How Do Public Managers Manage? written by Carolyn Ban and published by Jossey-Bass. This book was released on 1995-05-22 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If the reengineering of government is to be successful, we must first understand how the current system affects how managers actually manage.Based on a comprehensive study of four federal agencies--including interviews with over 100 public managers--How Do Public Managers Manage? is a richly detailed analysis of the effect of organizational culture on managers' behavior. This important book offers a practical understanding of how government managers solve problems, manage personnel, and plan in the face of bureaucratic constraints.How Do Public Managers Manage? examines what managers can do to work more effectively within existing systems, and evaluates the potential of success of the reform efforts designed to free managers from the chains of bureaucracy. Author Carolyn Ban delivers critical information on how managers from government agencies (that vary in mission, size, structure, resources, and leadership) cope with bureaucratic limitations and constraints. She reveals how organizational differences directly affect such considerations as the management selection process, the quality of management training, and the managers' career path. The book also analyzes how the role of manager can vary within and between organizations as exemplified by first line "working" manager-supervisors and supervisors who have the title but perform very few of the functions of a supervisor.Focusing on how coping strategies differ across agencies, the author probes how managers' react to the constraints imposed by the civil service system and the budget process and outlines the strategies they use when dealing with the lengthy and complex process of hiring and firing. And the author examines how managers implement the often frustrating mandates of personnel ceilings, hiring freezes, and reductions in workforce. Using numerous examples and insightful stories, the book reveals the range of methods that managers find to operate within or to circumvent the formal systems of
