Professional Development for Content-based Literacy

Hi Everyone,

I'd love to hear your thoughts on a few questions about PD:

  1. In your ongoing professional development, how often is training related to a specific context area? (For example, financial or health literacy.)
  2. How does this affect your overall practice compared to non-contextual training?
  3. How big a demand would you say there is for this type of professional development? 
  4. How big a demand would you say there is for professional development in addressing health literacy?

 I hope to hear from both teachers and program administrators! Then I'll share some resources.

Thanks!

Julie
