development of new teachers and veteran teachers while providing high quality education to P-12 students. The chapters of this
book contain the stories of 8 highly successful and nationally recognized professional development schools. Each story provides the
reader with practical ideas, procedures and policies that can be implemented by the reader to begin new partnerships or help
improve and sustain existing partnerships.
Each chapter discusses the rich clinical preparation combined with progressive experiences in PDSs that have made the partnership
successful. The diverse authors from several different states describe their efforts to forge PDS partnerships to develop and deliver
high quality teacher preparations, practical experiences for teacher candidates, and simultaneously provide professional
development for experienced practitioners.
The book will be a valuable resource to school and university faculty and administrators as
they transition to a partnering model of clinical preparation for teacher candidates: it will
help stakeholders decide if their schools and institutions are ready to commit to a
partnership, and highlight the benefits they stand to gain. The book also realistically
addresses challenges in a way the reader can prepare for to reduce obstacles in establishing
and sustaining PDSs.
