However, in order to facilitate learner-centered, technology-rich instruction to K-12 students, teachers must be afforded opportunities to develop key understandings and skills, rarely evident in most professional development programs. In this paper, we synthesize empirically-based studies and recommendations for teacher learning and propose a learner-centered professional development (LCPD) framework to guide both professional development and empirical work on teacher learning. We describe LCPD components, discuss ways that technology can support LCPD, and highlight implications for research and practice.}, language = {en}, number = {5}, urldate = {2020-08-12}, journal = {Educational Technology Research and Development}, author = {Polly, Drew and Hannafin, Michael J.}, month = oct, year = {2010}, note = {shortDOI: 10/fwd4wz KerkoCite.ItemAlsoKnownAs: 10.1007/s11423-009-9146-5 10/fwd4wz 2405685:E28QZPQQ}, pages = {557--571}, }
