With No Child Left Behind adding momentum to state accountability efforts, some researchers suggest that the focus of professional development needs to change. Schools need to use student assessment results systematically to identify professional development needs and to design professional development opportunities accordingly. In addition, schools need to help teachers learn how to use student assessment results to modify and target their own classroom instruction. This "Research Link" article from Educational Leadership (November 2003) reviews current thinking on this topic.
