Welcome About the Center Current Projects Services Professional Development BP Clearinghouse Teacher Induction Pre-Approved Providers State Resources Contacting Us Funding Opportunities Funded Projects At the Arizona K-12 Center, finding and supporting the most effective practices in education is imperative to the accomplishment of our goals. This has led us to focus on the identification of Best Practices. Best Practices are research-based instructional or staff development practices that are most effective and equitable in generating improved student learning outcomes. In an effort to disseminate the information gathered, the Center has established the Best Practices Clearinghouse, a compilation of recognized programs, and additional resources and links, which provides educators and the community with research-based criteria and programs on "what works" in K-12 Education. The clearinghouse includes a database with information to ease decision-making on school reform initiatives, resources, and curriculum research documentation. Evaluating educational practices and disseminating that information has led to the emergence of four areas as the foundation of the clearinghouse:

September 2002 Results This article from Results describes what the 2002 No Child Left Behind (NCLB) legislation means for professional development. NCLB references teacher professional development frequently by outlining how money will be spent and by defining good professional development. The author also includes concerns over how the legislation will be implemented. The power of one , by Stephanie Hirsh. Summer 2000 Journal of Staff Development After spending a career as an educator, NSDC Deputy Executive Director Stephanie Hirsh learned some of her greatest lessons about how to influence local policies when she became a school board member. In that new role, she watched as single citizens were able to seize the attention of a board and a district.
