Teacher professional development in a technology immersion school

This paper describes a model of teacher professional development in place, in a school with a very high concentration of computers and related technologies, being used in the delivery of its curriculum. The model emphasises on-site resourcing for ongoing professional development experiences for teachers, concurrent and integrated with their classroom teaching. The school's policy involves integration of the technology with all appropriate aspects of the curriculum throughout all year levels of the school. This has, of course, had major implications for teacher professional development, and the paper outlines strategies used to respond to this challenge.
