Abstract

American education is undergoing great change, facing fiscal challenges, and slipping in international standings. Of the many areas educational leaders need to examine, teachers' transfer of learning from professional development to their classroom instruction should be a strategic focus. Transferring learning is a highly complex dynamic that encompasses multiple factors. This chapter analyzes these factors through the lenses of pertinent behavioral theories revealing the variety of influences and issues that impact teachers' transfer of learning from professional development to their own instructional practices. This chapter will also assist school, district, and state level administrators in identifying and assessing the transfer culture within their schools.
