Professional Development

When we hear about Professional Development (PD) and we don’t know anything about that, we can guess in our mind that it means development of our profession including our skill, knowledge and something related to our personal. Hayes Mizell said that Professional development refers to many types of educational experiences related to an individual’s work. (Hayes Mizell: 2010).[1] Professional Development is very important for teacher, it is not only can improve teacher’s ability in teaching but it can improve the school where teacher teaches. We get Professional Development (PD) is not only in teacher training, workshop, and seminar and so on. But using technology we can enhance our Professional Development (PD) such as using Facebook, twitter, Coursera, etc. to improve our teaching skills. Below are examples of my Professional Development using technology.
