Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Professional development doesn't fail because educators don't care.It fails because it forgets the experience.Too often, professional learning is reduced to presentations, handouts, and checklists that deliver information but fail to inspire action. Educators leave with notes instead of energy, resources instead of relationships, and ideas that rarely make it back to the classroom. But what if professional development felt less like a requirement and more like a journey worth taking In Destination PD, Jennifer Crook and Melissa Adams reimagine professional learning through a bold, experience-driven approach that places connection, creativity, collaboration, and joy at the center of every learning opportunity. Instead of 'sit-and-get' sessions and one-size-fits-all workshops, the authors provide a practical framework for designing experiences that educators genuinely look forward to attending-and continue talking about long after they end.Drawing on authentic stories and innovative events like Jawsfest and Wacotown, Jennifer and Melissa demonstrate how intentional design can transform professional learning into something memorable, meaningful, and impactful. Readers will discover strategies for creating welcoming environments, fostering authentic collaboration, building trust, encouraging reflection, and designing experiences that honor the expertise educators already bring to the room.Whether you're leading a district conference, facilitating school-based professional learning, coaching teachers, or planning your next staff meeting, Destination PD offers practical ideas that can be implemented immediately. Filled with real-world examples, planning tools, and actionable strategies, this book empowers leaders to move beyond delivering content and begin creating experiences that inspire lasting change.This isn't about another initiative or the latest trend in education.It's about changing how professional learning feels.When educators experience engaging, meaningful learning themselves, they're more likely to create those same experiences for their students. That's how cultures change, innovation grows, and learning becomes contagious.If you believe professional development should inspire, connect, challenge, and stick, Destination PD is your guide to creating learning experiences educators won't just remember-they'll want to repeat.…
