Professional Development Plan

I visited http://www.edutopia.org. This site had a lot of information on what works in public education. They had a lot of information like videos, magazines, blogs, and a lot of different tools that a teacher can use in their classrooms. I read the article on "Why is teacher development important?". http://www.edutopia.org/teacher-development-introduction This article talked about how important it was for the teacher preparation programs to have hands on in classrooms. Having a mentor once they are teaching, and how it is very important for veteran teachers to have professional development. To help them be up to date on how students learn, and learning how to implement technology into their classrooms.

Other things that I would like to know more about...
technology in classrooms,
programs students could also use at home,
programs for teachers,
hands on project to do with the students.
