Professional Development Plan Final

PDP stand for professional development plan.
professional development plan provides a

system that will you identify the area of your strength and weaknesses and think of a guide
that will improve and capitalise their current abilities and capacities. It is a preview of where
you remain at the hour of the assessment that lets you think about your following steps.
The importance to having a professional development plan is it will help people define what
they want from their career and how they will achieve their goals. Moreover, PDP will help
you gain understanding of yourself, including professional abilities and areas for
improvement. The benefits of having professional development plan is having promotions,
raises, new professional opportunities and smooth career transitions.
There are steps for writing your professional development plan to have a successful PDP.
Assessing your position now, identifying your goals in your teaching career, identifying your
professional skills that you already have and what you need to work with, write how you are
going to achieve these goals you wrote, develop a timeline for achieving your goals and
targets, write your plan. Implement your plan, evaluate your plan and make changes if
needed, then measure your progress to see if you achieved your goals.
The important thing to me for having a Professional development plan is that I know what I
want to achieve and where I want to reach, writing my plans to achieve my goals is very
important to see my progress to reach my goals and to gain knowledge and experience in
teaching primary students which will help me also if I wanted to have my masters degree.
My goals for this semester and next semester are clear, I have set 3 goals to achieve before
graduating. My first goal is to have a good time managing to be able to finish what I planned
in the lesson plan during the class. Another goal is to record student’s progress through
doing assessments and giving feedbacks. And my last goal is to have the ability to manage
student’s behavior during teaching
As a student teacher, during my teaching practice I will be practicing achieving my 3 goals

that I my MCT and MST gave me a feedback on. However, even after graduating with all the
knowledge about teaching I will still learn day by day during my teaching journey by the end
of my journey in college and teaching practice I am willing to be a successful teacher.
In conclusion, as a teacher I believe that every teacher should know what her ability is and
how she can improve herself to become a better teacher for the students. Teacher should
know how to deal with students and their behaviours and without a professional plan
teacher will not be able to achieve their goals if they do not know their goals and their
abilities, they will not be able to improve themselves in any way. That is why a plan is very
important for teacher’s career.

Acti During assessment for example quizzes and activities, I will start giving
on feedback as the students working in the class, sometimes it is difficult to do
2: that, but it is possible.
1- I will be using apps where it can show student’s marks immediately
after finishing the quiz or the assessment. For example, I can use
kahoot, showbie, seesaw and other application where the students
can work and have fun at the same time.
2- Tracking students progress through giving out homework and
bringing them the next day.

Goa My goal is to have the ability to manage student’s behavior during
l 3: teaching
Acti 1- For my next teaching practice, I will try to use ClassDojo or other
on strategies like giving stickers having time to play for 5 minutes or
3: giving candies. Some students will not be motivated by these
strategies I have to practice it with them first and then I will stick
with one of the strategies.
2- For the students who create distraction or try to make problem
with other students I can let them help me explain something to
others or help me with giving out worksheet or erase the board.
3- Dealing with students who gives distraction might be hard because
some students won’t care about time out or homework. I will have
to send them to the principle, and she can call their parents and
deal with them.
