Teachers Today Must Wear Many Hats!
Professional and subject knowledge has long been part of the teacher education curriculum. However, skill training in the areas of developing, acting, managing and selling appears to have been overlooked in most programs.
Research has shown that some of our best teachers are also accomplished DEVELOPERS! They create and adapt a wide variety of multimedia teaching materials for instructional use. They are able to use both traditional tools and the computer to enhance their professional productivity. Developing skills, then, also need to be honed.
Developing for Teachers will contribute to the professional development of both new and experienced teachers by providing training in the developing skills that are desired.

To help meet the needs of both new and experienced teachers, we now offer a series of training handbooks. These include:
Developing for Teachers

Skill acquisition for each of the above-mentioned titles is performance-based and evaluation is criterion-referenced. Both teachers and teacher wannabes will benefit from the use of these very practical, self-study materials. Together with professional and subject knowledge instruction, these titles should help to provide a more realistic approach for delivering practical training in the complete praxis of teaching.
