Thanks to MetLife Foundation, Learning Forward continues to develop tools that lead to deeper implementation of the Standards for Professional Learning. Available soon are the next set of Innovation Configuration maps. Standards Into Practice: School System Roles presents IC maps for those who work in the following roles: central office, director of professional learning, superintendent, and school board.
IC maps identify and describe the major components of the standards in operation, helping those in various roles understand the actions they take as part of systemwide implementation.
The IC maps provide clear pictures of Learning Forward’s Standards for Professional Learning in practice and guide educators in increasing the quality and results of professional learning.
This is the second of three volumes of IC maps to complement the standards. Standards Into Practice: School-Based Roles is available through the Learning Forward Bookstore at https://store.learningforward.org. A third volume supporting those working outside of school systems will be published later in 2013.
