Hello NIFL-AALPD Colleagues:
What research is out there on professional development that addresses 
practitioners' questions?

This list of questions originated at the Symposium in California last 
December:
http://wiki.literacytent.org/index.php/Professional_Development_%2815%29

Please add other PD Research questions and, under questions where you feel 
there has been research, I hope you will add (partial or whole) citations and 
even comments as to how that research addresses that particular question.

For example, is there research on professional development activities that are 
most effective for building leadership capacity at the local level?

Is there research that finds whether and to what extent there is a common 
progression of experience that adult education teachers go through on their 
way to becoming capable adult education teachers?

To contribute to the list of questions or to add research resources, see the 
ALE Wiki Crib Sheet (below) that Marie Cora created to help inspiring 
wikiteers along :-)  Please let me know if there's anything I can do to help.  
Best, Jackie
