The purpose of the conference is for all members of the professional development schools (PDS) to share current practices, research, and issues related to our work. Everyone who works in school partnerships, at any stage of development, is welcome.
- presentations by invited national leaders in the field
- concurrent sessions for designed for sharing promising practices
- built-in planning time during which PDS teams can prepare for 2011 and beyond
The conference will encourage sessions and conversations among new, developing, and mature school partnerships in a relaxed atmosphere on Penn State’s scenic campus. There will be sessions for all stakeholders, including mentors, teacher candidates, clinical faculty, and deans and directors.
Please plan to join us in learning about our collective PDS experiences.
