Subject: Re: Why do museums do teacher PD?
Michelle,
The first two reasons that come to mind are (1) it is a stakeholder expectation (especially board members), and (2) museums often have expertise to share in inquiry-based learning and in specific content areas, and (3) some staff believe it promotes school field trips.
That's my quick summary. :-)

So, a question was posed to me today that I thought would be interesting to pose to the list-serv because I would be fascinated to see your replies, even if it's just from a few folks or many of you: Why do museums do teacher professional development?
We can't reach every teacher everywhere, so why do we do it at all?
I am not looking for a particular answer. I just want to experience the breadth of answers that I suspect would come out of posing such a question. Hope you enjoy noodling on that one for a bit. :>)
