Curriculum-Based Professional Learning
what is cURRICULUM-BASED PROFESSIONAL LEARNING?
Curriculum-based professional learning (CBPL) supports and strengthens instruction that leverages high-quality instructional materials (HQIM). It’s uniquely powerful, connecting content knowledge and instructional strategies to the materials teachers use in their classrooms. CBPL goes beyond the initial product training to provide both teachers and leaders with the ongoing, job-embedded, dynamic support needed to use HQIM skillfully.
Rivet Education’s Framework for Curriculum-Based Professional Learning defines for educators the characteristics, types, and structures that construct high-quality, curriculum-based professional learning. This framework guides Rivet’s work and builds the field’s understanding of the essential components and characteristics of strong curriculum-based professional learning.
How can cbpl help?
CBPL is one of the most crucial elements of a curriculum implementation plan. Implementing HQIM often requires profound shifts in responsibilities and practices—changes which vary by role and by implementation phase. CBPL provides curriculum-grounded guidance to ensure all educators have what they need to excel in their roles.
Rivet Education understands that providing teachers and leaders with CBPL is hard work. It requires a commitment of time, capacity, and money that education leaders do not have in abundance. We’re here to help.
