This book tells the story of the Towson University, Maryland, Professional Development School Network, which serves more than eighty schools in metropolitan Baltimore and surrounding areas. It describes the development and implementation of state and national standards for professional development schools, accountability and sustainability issues, and impacts on the roles of faculty and teachers. This book is a source of advanced information for institutions that face the complexities of professional development school work for connecting policy with practice. The Towson project not only examines the "how to" of professional development schools but also examines some of the impacts on teaching and learning.

Pressezitat
"PDS partnerships can change the landscape of teacher education and P-12 schools. The experiences of Towson University and their school partners, of working collaboratively over 10 years, provides a rich source of substantive and research-based information on how those changes take place and the differences they can make." (Marsha Levine, Sr. Consultant for Professional Development Schools, National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education, Washington, DC)"Towson University and its school partners have long played leadership roles in state and national PDS development and with this book, they continue that role. 'Traditions, Standards, and Transformations' provides a valuable mix of theory and practice about using data to determine PDS impacts, about shaping state and national PDS standards (and being shaped by them), about the role changes that must go on for PDSs to be effective, and about taking PDS to scale in the largest teacher education program in the state."
"Grounded as it is in Towson's long history with starting and going to scale with PDS and its key role in local, state, and national PDS development, this book, 'Traditions, Standards, and Transformations', provides a valuable mix of theory and practice about supporting and developing PDSs and PDS networks." (Lee Teitel, researcher and author of 'The Professional Development School Handbook: Starting, Sustaining, and Assessing Partnerships that Improve Student Learning')
