TEACHER PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
NEEDS SURVEY
Please respond to these SURVEY questions so we may better understand your needs
relative to teaching and learning. This information will assist us in preparing a professional
development grant proposal for possible funding by the Michigan Department of Education.
The information you provide is strictly confidential. Your name will not be linked to the
data; only group data will be reported. Information collected is used to shape the proposed
professional development program and to assess changes in needs over time.
Thank you for taking the time to complete this survey, your input is greatly appreciated.
INDIVIDUALIZED CODE
To begin, please complete your individual code; this number is unique to you (no one else
will know it). You will be asked to use the same code for other program surveys. Carefully

teachers meets regularly to discuss teaching and
learning)
19. Study Groups (group of teachers meet to discuss
a particular topic of interest)
20. Action Research (individual teacher or group
studies a particular question about teaching or
learning, using the classroom site for research)

practice and discuss it, with a goal of improving
instruction)
24. Mentor Teaching (a master teacher models good
instruction while another teacher observes)
25. Electronic Listgroups (groups of teachers
"converse" about their practice electronically)
