    Professional development for teachers is important for improving student outcomes. While teachers often enter the profession unprepared, professional development events can help address this issue, though there is no consensus on what elements should be included. Effective professional development includes teachers in learning environments that are inclusive, collaborative, and ongoing, and helps school leaders create positive learning environments. Research shows professional development is most effective when it matches teachers' needs, involves teacher participation, and allows for active learning opportunities. For grade one teachers specifically, professional development has helped align teaching strategies to better meet the individual learning needs of young students.

    EFFECTS OF PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT ON THE

    QUALITY OF TEACHING IN GRADE 1

    Teacher training is related to student success, but teachers often join the profession unprepared.
    Training in-service, or professional development events, are commonly used to address this situation. There is
    no consensus on just what key elements of an appropriate professional development program should be
    included.
    Conversely, successful professional development includes teachers in learning environments that
    are inclusive, occupationally rooted, educationally oriented, collaborative and ongoing. The school leaders will
    create positive learning environments for all teachers when driven by these characteristics.
    Consequently, findings indicate that any effective professional development activity should consist of
    the following components: 1) a match to existing teacher needs, 2) a match to existing school needs, 3)
    teacher involvement in the design/planning of professional development activities, and 4) active participation
    opportunities.
    Furthermore, researchers long have recognized that teachers’ professional development is essential to
    changing classroom practice, improving schools, and ameliorating pupils’ learning outcomes (Borko, 2004).
    Professional learning often takes place in formal settings, such as professional development programmes,
    teaching research groups, and formal mentoring programmes (Timperley, 2011). Teachers also can learn
    through informal interactions that occur during peer teaching, collaborative planning, and mentoring between
    colleagues (Little, 2012).
    In Grade one teaching, Professional Development has affected the strategies of teachers to align their
    teaching strategies to improve the learning of Grade one students. These strategies differ from strategies for
    higher levels as Grade one students should be considered with their authentic and different individualized
    learning styles as they are first hand learners.
