  • Is the investment in PD resulting in higher student achievement?
  • Are all teams engaged in deep collaborative learning?
  • Are teachers getting clear feedback on how to improve their instruction?

LSI Growth Tracker ensures every teacher receives professional development that is high-quality, job-embedded, and focused on instructional strategies proven to raise student achievement.

Its web-based platform facilitates meetings and delivers research-based content, but the most powerful professional learning takes place in classroom practice and meaningful dialogue with peer coaches.

Affordable and scaleable, the standard package delivers the equivalent of three years’ worth of traditional PD, for a cost comparable to a single on-site PD date.

Collaboration Improves Practice

Ensuring world-class teaching in every classroom is a tall order. But with a collaborative approach to professional learning and a focus on high-impact instructional strategies, sustainable success is possible.

Fortunately, most teachers already meet in teams. Unfortunately, planning meetings, coming up with meaningful activities, and documenting work steal precious time from the real purpose: powerful collaborative learning that changes classroom practice and impacts student outcomes.
