CEEDAR’s Mission
To create aligned professional learning systems that provide teachers and leaders effective opportunities to learn how to improve core and specialized instruction in inclusive settings that enable students with disabilities to achieve college and career ready standards
To Accomplish Our Purpose
We will facilitate collaborative relationships among SEAs, IHEs, LEAs and non-profit organizations to:
– Reform teacher and leadership preparation – Revise licensure standards– Refine preparation evaluation systems
Collaborative Relationships
Are essential for helping states build a well-aligned policy structure for supporting effective Professional Learning Systems
Professional Learning Systems (PLS)
Are characterized by:– Effective opportunities to learn for teachers
and leaders [O(TL)2]– Organizations that support ongoing learning – Policies that are aligned– Evaluation systems that can be used to
refine O(TL)2
Dimensions of O(TL)2
