The School Improvement Network is the leading provider of  
comprehensive, research-based professional development. The Network  
works closely with schools and districts to ensure that best practices  
are implemented in the classroom.

Example: Block Scheduling

·     Examine and consider the benefits of parallel and block  
scheduling.

·     Reduce classroom discipline problems and improve academic  
performance.

·     Learn how to develop a block schedule in your schools.

·     See a variety of workable block schedules and the resulting  
increases in student learning.

The network features PD 360 Professional Development On-Demand

PD 360, the leading on-demand professional learning resource, is a web- 
based library of over 70 research-based professional development  
programs. The programs are broken into hundreds of searchable segments  
that empower teachers to access instant answers and individualized  
support. PD 360 includes 4 programs on classroom management. PD 360  
allows teachers and leaders to move through learning at their own pace  
and digitized facilitator guides make it simple for professional  
learning communities to prepare more than 30 research-based training  
sessions around differentiated instruction. Integrated tracking,
