Abstract	Why does professional learning for educators have such a mixed history? Why is it so hard to find solid research evidence of professional development programs that actually improve student learning outcomes? Part of the answer, writes Thomas R. Guskey, is that professional learning experiences for educators are rarely well planned. Consequently, they lack purpose, cohesiveness, and direction. To address this problem, Guskey recommends that professional developers practice backward planning. Schools should begin by deciding what student learning outcomes are desired, and then consider what instructional practices will produce these outcomes, what organizational supports are needed to implement those instructional practices well, what new skills teachers will need, and only then what professional learning activities will best help teachers develop these skills.
