Back to Basics Expands Personalized Professional Development Programs

for Delaware Educators and Administrators

Wilmington, Delaware -- Back to Basics Learning Dynamics has recently

expanded its Professional Development Programs for educators, staff and
administrators in Delaware. Each of the programs is custom-designed to
meet the unique, stated needs of each school.

Teachers and administrators know that in order to maximize effectiveness in

the classroom, individualized professional development is vital, explains
Back to Basics Director Beverly Stewart, M.Ed. Our programs help education
professionals stay abreast of the latest developments in methodology,
curriculum, and social/emotional wellness.

Back to Basics programs not only fulfill Delaware state requirements for
professional development clock hours, they go far beyond standard, pre-
packaged lecture-style classes. Instead, educators, staff and administrators
have a hand in creating just the right program for their school.

Professional Development is defined by the state as, a combination of

focused, in-depth learning, practice, feedback, reflection, and expert support
experiences designed to change participants attitudes, insights, and/or
perspectives; and ultimately results in improved professional practice.
Currently, the State of Delaware requires every educator to complete 90
clock hours of professional development over the five-year renewal cycle of a
Continuing License. And, a wide variety of professional development
activities designed to enhance the educators abilities are available through
Back to Basics.

At Back to Basics, we know that one size never fits all, says Stewart. Our
Professional Development Programs address very specific needs, challenges,
and goals, helping teachers create an atmosphere of success in the
classroom and beyond. With our support, teachers, staff and administrators
alike enhance their skills, and learn how to create a positive, progressive
school and classroom atmosphere.

Recent examples of Professional Development Programs presented include

RTI Support and Implementation, Supporting Mental Health and Wellness--
Assisting Students with Anxiety, Depression, and Childhood Trauma, Autism
Spectrum Disorder--Assessment, Intervention, and Classroom Inclusion
Strategies, How ADHD Impacts Peer Relationships and Learning, Utilizing
Assessment Data to Build More Efficient Lesson Planning, and
Differentiating Instruction. These examples highlight the tremendous range
of topics which are customized to each school request, and tailored to the
needs of that audience.

In addition to popular day programs, Back to Basics also offers sustainable

programs. These are longer term and provide not only comprehensive
instruction, but also ongoing mentoring and teacher observations, as well,
allowing teachers the time it takes to become truly exceptional at the
teaching craft. Ongoing collaboration can include needs and goals
assessments, reviewing test scores and report card data, providing
pedagogical support, evaluating current PLPs, and helping to develop PLC
content.

Back to Basics Professional Development Programs are available throughout

the State of Delaware. For more information or to arrange a program at your
school, contact Erin Brenner at 302.594.0754 or
