**Data Collection ** ** Surveys ** The survey was created using GoogleDocs and will be sent via e-mail to all participating staff members. Staff members will be notified that the survey is optional, but will be instrumental in developing future professional learning sessions. Participants will have a period of two weeks to respond to the survey. The researcher will monitor the progress of the responses and determine an appropriate number of reminders to send to the participants. It is anticipated that one reminder will be sent approximately one week after the initial survey is sent and another the day before the survey closes. ** Interviews ** Once the surveys are complete, in-person interviews will be conducted with teachers who are willing to participate using the interview guide approach. Interviews should last between fifteen and thirty minutes. These interviews will be arranged at a time that is mutually convenient for the participants and the researcher. The interviews will be recorded for later transcription and analysis.
