    Dear FASD Conference Participants:

    On behalf of the over 12,000 members of the National Staff Development

    Council and the Councils Trustees and staff, I extend NSDC's greetings

    and best wishes for another outstanding FASD conference.

    I commend FASD for its more than 30 years of leadership in professional

    learning in Florida. Without a doubt, FASD plays a significant role in help-

    ing NSDC achieve its purpose: Every educator engages in effective profes-

    sional learning every day so every student achieves. FASD has long led

    the charge that professional learning results in improvements in student

    learning. The recent report from the Florida DOE provides powerful evi-dence of this assertion.

    It is my hope that you will use this conference and your membership in

    FASD to assist you with your efforts to advance NSDCs purpose. Please

    take advantage of the many opportunities for building awareness of new

    findings, practicing new skills, and considering how you will apply new

    learning to your daily work.

    Thank you for your support of FASD and for your commitment to high levels

    of performance for your students and colleagues. Congratulations to the

    conveners of this conference. Have a powerful learning experience!

    Sincerely

    Stephanie Hirsh

    Executive Director

    What are Concurrent Sessions? Concurrent sessions consist of 1-2 hour sessions designedto provide updated information, resources, best practices, or support regarding the latest De-partment of Education legislation, current state/national initiatives, Protocol standards, orpriority needs of staff developers at the district, school, and faculty levels. Participantschoose from a menu of selected topics during the concurrent session times. Many sessions

    will be repeated. Check the Program Agenda to verify which sessions will be presented morethan once.

    We design the concurrent sessions to meet not only the needs of different role-alike groupsbut also address different district sizes as well.

    Which ones should I attend? Choose the sessions that best meet your needs. If you comewith a team of colleagues, divide up, and attend different sessions. Come back and share allof your collected ideas and information with one another and with your district. Many ses-sions are repeated. Many of the session materials will be posted on the FASD website fol-lowing the conference, and you are welcome to email the presenters for more information.

    What are the Focus Strands? Through our data-driven research, the FASDLC PlanningCommittee and FASD Board introduced our two-year theme 2008-2010 as Leadership forLearning. We wanted to create learning venues that addressed important and challenging needsof our stakeholders through consistent and continuous learning initiatives over a two-year pe-riod, threading specific learning topics through FASD Spring Forums and FASD LeadershipConferences. Look for the following topic strands within the descriptions of the concurrentsessions. Specific learning strands will focus on the following:

    Learning State-of-the Art Delivery Systems,

    Learning to Support Quality Teacher and School Leadership, and

    Learning to Support New Teachers.

Miami-Dade Public Schools recently developed several tools that identifytargeted PD needs and monitor support. The Professional Development through Data-based Decisions (PD3) tool allowsadministrators to assess, classroom-by-classroom, PD needs in core academic areas and efficiently deploy PD resources asneeded. The PD Support Services log, in turn, monitors the level and effectiveness of PD support by collecting data on re-cording areas targeted and frequency of support delivered, while highlighting school-wide patterns for PD needs and services.

    Leadership For Learning

    FASD Has a Two-Year Theme2008 2010

    The FASDLC Planning Committee and the Board spent a weekend together this past Fall 2007

    collecting and analyzing data to determine priority professional development needs for Florida educators

    who are dedicated to improving learning for ALL. Our goal was to build a two-year theme that focused

    on critical areas that aligned to NSDC priority goals, Florida Department of Education goals, and FASDs

    Mission and Vision. Our second goal was to scaffold these learning experiences so professionals could

    continue to build on prior knowledge in specific areas that affected student achievement in the state of

    Florida.

    One of the data pieces we used to determine our two-year theme and strands was last years

    FASDLC 2007 member evaluations. We looked for key initiatives to support you personally in your pro-

    fession and in your work place. Through our data-driven research, we are excited to introduce our theme

    for the 2008-2010 and our three priority strands.

    Theme: Leadership for LearningStrands:

    Learning State-of-the-Art Delivery Methods and Follow-Up

    Learning to Support Quality Teacher and School Leadership, and

    Learning to Support New Teachers.
