Two Models of Teacher Training
Deficit model: Something is lacking & needs to be corrected Determined by others, notably by administrators,
program evaluators, or researchers Teachers are seen as the objects rather than
subjects of their professional growth Growth model:
Continuous inquiry, site-based learning Teachers seen as reflective practitioners about
their own instructional & social practices in the classroom
