Training and Monitoring: a two-stage training model in teacher professional development Idalina Santos Ana Amélia Carvalho 10.6084/m9.figshare.7507976.v1 https://scielo.figshare.com/articles/dataset/Training_and_Monitoring_a_two-stage_training_model_in_teacher_professional_development/7507976 <p></p><p>Abstract: We present a teacher training course that has emerged as a way to support the trainees as well as to keep up with the training received. It is developed in two stages: (i) the training process and (ii) the monitoring. The second stage acts as support for trainees after the training course, urging them to continue to update the training received. It has already been applied in Portugal. We describe the procedure and present the results. To contextualize our study we report some training and professional development initiatives implemented in Portugal, as well as processes of change in the scope of basic and secondary education. We also describe the model, the research questions that were outlined for its evaluation, and the results achieved.</p><p></p> 2018-12-26 03:08:38 Teacher Professional Development Blended-Learning Teacher Training Two-stage Training Model E-learning platforms
