CPD Curriculum: Creating conditions for growth
Autor Zoe Enser, Mark Enseren Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 iul 2021
În analiza volumului The Cpd Curriculum, scris de Zoe Enser și Mark Enser, descoperim o abordare bazată pe interdisciplinaritate, unde principiile designului curricular și cele ale psihologiei învățării sunt aplicate direct în managementul resurselor umane din instituțiile de învățământ. Notăm cu interes cum autorii transferă rigoarea planificării didactice în sfera dezvoltării profesionale continue, argumentând că formarea profesorilor nu trebuie să fie o serie de evenimente izolate, ci un parcurs coerent și progresiv. Această lucrare extinde cadrul propus de Effective Teacher Development de Bob Burstow cu date noi extrase din cercetările recente privind auto-eficacitatea și utilizarea materialelor de calitate în formarea adulților. Dacă Burstow se concentra pe deciziile strategice la nivel de federații școlare, soții Enser rafinează procesul la nivel de interacțiune umană, punând accent pe coaching și mentorat ca instrumente de creștere organică. Putem afirma că textul reușește să ofere o soluție pragmatică pentru fenomenul de „platou” profesional, oferind liderilor școlari o structură clară în trei etape: intenție, implementare și impact. Poziționăm The Cpd Curriculum ca un punct de convergență în opera autorilor. Dacă în How Do They Do It? aceștia evaluau succesul școlar prin prisma standardelor externe, iar în Fiorella & Mayer's Generative Learning in Action explorau mecanismele cognitive ale elevului, volumul de față sintetizează aceste direcții. El transformă profesorul din subiect al evaluării în beneficiar al unui proces de învățare generativă. Stilul este unul precis, orientat către liderul de departament sau directorul care caută să fundamenteze deciziile de formare pe dovezi, nu pe intuiție, asigurând astfel o retenție mai bună a personalului prin împuternicire și profesionalism.

Descriere scurtă
There is a wealth of research available on professional learning, from both within and outside the education sphere, and in this book Zoe and Mark pull it all together to help school leaders optimise teachers' ongoing learning and growth.
Zoe and Mark explain how schools can overcome issues with CPD that can leave teachers plateauing in their development after just a few years, and share a variety of case studies that illustrate the key
components of an effective CPD programme that builds on teachers' prior knowledge.
The authors spell out the importance of CPD and explain how, when done well, it gives teachers the agency to make professional decisions informed by the best evidence and experience they have to hand. Furthermore, they explore how high-quality professional development contributes not only to a collaborative culture within the school staff team and enhanced job satisfaction for teachers, but also to improved student outcomes.
Split into three parts - intent, implementation and impact - the book covers a range of key areas, including: coaching and mentoring, subject-specific CPD, empowerment and self-efficacy, delivery methods and quality of materials. They also examine the current issues and common pitfalls surrounding CPD and offer guidance on how it can be improved, with clear end goals in mind.
Suitable for school leaders, heads of department and CPD leads in all settings.
; This invaluable handbook shares expert and practical guidance for schools on designing and delivering continuing professional development (CPD) that truly lives up to its name.
; From the moment I read the dedication to this brilliant book I was hooked. It was as if Zoe and Mark could see into my memories of the endless hours of pointless CPD I'd endured over the last 15 years. For years, teachers have been crying out for more teacher-centred development - and this book definitely answers that call. Packed full of research and musings on teacher development from the great and good in education, it is a thorough and robust exploration of the "why" of CPD and the reasons why schools sometimes don't get it right. As the authors state, great teacher development should be part of a bigger picture and a shared vision that all teachers are working towards and in which each teacher is an essential component to complete the picture. If more teachers felt this sense of importance and autonomy, then surely we could help to solve the retention crisis? The CPD Curriculum is not just an essential book for those in charge of staff development in schools, it is a must-read for all teachers who feel anchorless and adrift on the vast ocean of CPD. It will be your stay.

; In The CPD Curriculum, Zoe and Mark Enser model a road to a CPD utopia and carefully detail how to put this into place in our schools. We are shown that the typical CPD course, with its deluge of information thrown at teachers, rarely has meaningful impact. Instead, in this book we are introduced to a new model of CPD which integrates experience and theory, and always has its end goal in sight. We are scaffolded with strategies to ensure we nurture teachers who are active rather than passive participants in the process. The CPD Curriculum explores a holistic approach to our aims to improve, where motivation of our teachers is key.The cycle utilised to ensure vision is translated into reality is key - involving theory, exploration, experience and reflection. We are guided to make the move from instruction to induction, trusting and valuing the role of teachers in their development.The CPD Curriculum takes you to the very heart of just how fantastic CPD h
Descriere
Great teachers make a difference. And if we want to see great outcomes for all students, schools need to develop all of their teachers - and we need them to believe that this is possible. There is a wealth of research on professional learning, from both within and outside the education sphere, and this book pulls it all together in order to assist leaders in enabling their staff to enhance their practice.
In The CPD Curriculum Zoe and Mark Enser suggest how schools can overcome issues with CPD that can leave teachers plateauing in their development after just a few years, and which may leave some sceptical about the changes often thrust upon them. The authors discuss the idea of a curriculum for CPD that mirrors the thinking underpinning the school curriculum for pupils - that is, delivering CPD as a clearly planned programme that builds on teachers' prior knowledge.
Split into three parts - covering intent, implementation and impact - the book explores a range of topics, including: coaching and mentoring, subject-specific CPD, empowerment and self-efficacy, use of educational research, and delivery methods and quality of materials.
