Beta Phase Research for the Professional Development Support System (PDS2)
We currently have two main lines of research underway concerning the development, use, and effects of PDS2 (Professional Development Support System). The first, funded by the Institute of Education Sciences (IES), is set within the context of a larger field study of the efficacy of the professional development program, Literacy Collaborative. The second line of research focuses specifically on the patterns of use of PDS2 by school-based staff developers and the individual and school factors that influence this use.
