__Directions for completing your Microteach II Professional Development Plan:__ When you do internship I (as well as when you become a teacher), you will have to record several of your lessons and write a professional development plan identifying and detailing areas needing improvement that you noticed when viewing your recorded performance. You will also be asked to write activities/strategies that you can do to improve your performance in your problematic areas.

For the Microteach II Professional Development Plan, you are being asked to do the same thing that will be expected of you during your internship and when you become a teacher. This assignment will familiarize you with what you will eventually have to do as a professional.

You are still in the learning stages of teaching. This assignment will enable you to pinpoint areas that you still need to work on and will give you a plan for improvement that you can implement AFTER you are finished with our class.


 * Provided below is a sample of part of a professional development plan. Since the sample below deals with the "Closure/Summary of the Lesson," do NOT select that criterion as one of the criteria upon which you need to improve. **

Under Column 1, identify the problematic criteria and provide evidence verifying that this criterion was problematic. Refer to what you noticed in your recording and your peers' comments on the feedback sheets. Include your peers' comments in this column.

Under Column 2, you are to indicate things (activities) you can do to improve your performance in the problematic areas. **The activities should be tangible, specific, and observable.** You can say that you will jot down notes in your future lesson plans to remember to do something, prepare "specific academic praise" cheat sheets, use a seating chart to check off the names of students on whom you will call to answer questions, etc.

Under Column 3, you are to identify FUTURE experiences/situations (**after this semester is over**) in which you can implement these activities/strategies. You can cite internships, future field experiences, tutoring or coaching situations, situations in which you are in a leadership/instructional position (student organization, for example), your employment, and other such situations in which you can legitimately practice the skills in which you need improvement.


 * Remember to refer to the grading key on the rubric. You will earn only one point for a cursory response, listing without explanation, or a single sentence response. A detailed response with explanation and justification provided will earn you 2 points. RESPOND IN DETAIL. You are expected to provide thoughtful, reflective responses.**
