Description
"Founded in 1943, the Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development (ASCD) is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization that represents more than 175,000 educators from 119 countries and nearly 60 affiliates. Our members span the entire profession of educatorssuperintendents, supervisors, principals, teachers, professors of education, and school board members. We address all aspects of effective teaching and learningsuch as professional development, educational leadership, and capacity building. ASCD offers broad, multiple perspectivesacross all education professionsin reporting key policies and practices. Because we represent all educators, we are able to focus solely on professional practice within the context of "Is it good for the children?" rather than what is reflective of a specific educator role. In short, ASCD reflects the conscience and content of education."
