An Investigation of a Professional Learning Measure to Support Teacher Leaders’ and Teachers’ Learning

The purpose of this study was to describe the use of a collaborative professional learning measure in SFUSD. Research suggests the importance of ongoing explorations of validity evidence for the use of measures in particular contexts. In this study, we are looking closely at how SFUSD district mathematics leaders used the measure of professional learning to support their professional development meetings with site-based teacher leaders as they focused on issues such as African American students’ learning and sense of belonging.
