The article deals with studying the American experience of educator professional development. To carry out this research the following methods have been applied: content analysis, systematization and theoretical generalization of scientific literature, standards, technical assistance documents and samples of the individual professional development plan (IPDP) for educators. Having conducted the research, the following results and conclusions have been drawn. The primary goal for professional learning is to help educators develop and apply the knowledge and skills necessary to help students to learn foreign languages more effectively and efficiently. Therefore, the planning and designing of professional learning include defining the SMART goals of professional learning drawn from analysis of student and educator learning needs, which are determined by examining data on student learning outcomes. To achieve these goals those who are responsible for professional learning should select the appropriate job-embedded and external forms of professional learning, which allow the educators to satisfy student learning needs, bridge the knowing-doing gap and integrating new ideas and skills into practice. An IPDP is a tool serving as a guide for the professional learning. IPDP enables educators to chart their goals and to plan learning activities that improve their competencies in order to enhance their students’ performance. Completing the IPDP includes setting the goals based on student learning needs, deciding on the professional methods/strategies, tapping possible resources, setting the time-frame, identifying success indicators. After having been accomplished, the IPDP is evaluated by the person in charge. Evaluation of professional learning provides the opportunity to monitor the process of embedding the new learning into practices by observing and assessing changes in educator practice and increases in student learning.

<p><b>Objective:</b> <a></a><a>Most students spend years in formal education settings without being explicitly taught how to learn effectively. </a>Our objective was to evaluate an innovative intervention designed to effectively equipping all students with learning skills, called the Growth & Goals Module, which is an adaptable open education resource available in English and French.</p><p><b>Methods:</b> We evaluated the module using a Practical Participatory Evaluation approach and the 4-level Kirkpatrick Evaluation model. To investigate ten research questions aligned with the model, we collected data from 1845 students and five educators from nine undergraduate courses in science, engineering, and mathematics through questionnaires, focus groups, course assessments, and institutional data.</p><p><b>Results:</b> Students and educators reported high satisfaction (Level 1, Learning). The training was new to most students and most completion rates were over 75% when educators provided an incentive. Students in some demographics used the module less than others. In Level 2 (Learning), students’ metacognitive skills increased. They could identify SMART goals and differentiate growth/fixed mindset statements. At Level 3 (Behaviour), students reported intending to use the module in the future. Most educators created learning outcomes for the first time. The module required little time of students and educators; however, greater support, incentives, and rewards are needed for project sustainability. Educators have used the module in courses in many disciplines and levels (Level 4, Results).</p><p><a></a><b>Conclusions:</b> The Growth & Goals module explicitly teaches core learning skills for students in science, engineering, and mathematics courses and has the potential to scale to other disciplines and levels.<br></p>

This paper presents a seven-step framework to assist students to independently select real-world issues, learn about them, and teach each other using English. These steps have been designed and refined to greatly enhance the chances of success. Students select an issue, identify the sources, set SMART goals to change the source of the problem, recruit help, learn from more experienced groups, take action, and follow up. 本論では学生に役立つ7つのステップを紹介する。学生が実社会で直面する問題を自律的に選び、その課題に関して学び、お互いに英語を使って教え合う。このステップは、成功するためのチャンスをより高めるために考案されている。学生は課題を設定し、問題点を明確にし、SMARTゴールを設定し、周りの人々と積極的に関わり合い、自分達より豊富な経験を持つグループから学び、継続性を持って行動することで、問題を解決する。


Building upon the findings from the previous chapters, the authors introduce the hot topic of perception, and the theories and models that researchers have proposed to somehow rationalise the decision-making process. In particular, they observe how individuals perceive specific situations and what factors influence such perception. This chapter is useful to reflect on past experiences, and the way you think of the people you come across in your life or within the organisation you work for. In this perspective, the authors show that perception can be manipulated through motivation techniques, using, for example, Maslow's theory of needs or Latham's SMART goals approach.


Both the attitude and the spirit of Entrepreneur 4.0 should change from people interested in competing in hostile markets to entrepreneurs competing globally by following SMART goals and a proposed Decalogue of Rules described in the chapter. In this entrepreneurial strengthening process rooted in precise information, formation, working experience, and relational capital, SCM (Supply Change Management)-based business strategies play a key role. Strategies are driving toward proposing an original VCIT model intended to help entrepreneurs to design and put into action internationalization policies. Six symbiotic oceans define all possible market situations that the entrepreneur may encounter the life of the company.
