Construct an essay and state and evaluate the staff development model by Duff and Kear.
What will be an ideal response?
Ans: The model has four aspects: (1) adaptive teaching is promoted when in-service sessions develop a "moral compass" to guide them, (2) the presenter’s attitude should promote adaptive thinking rather than be authoritative, (3) adaptive thinking is promoted when professional development is longitudinal rather than a one-shot session, and (4) adaptive thinking in promoted when professional development is case based or problem based. Students’ evaluations are their own. Points that may be raised include (1) the writers do not define their view of "adaptive thinking," (2) the writers are in the field of literacy, would everything still be appropriate in physics or some other area?, and (3) some of their statements, such as about one-shot workshops, have been known for decades and are not new.
