The Out-of-School Time Resource Center (OSTRC) conducted literature searches of the UPENN library databases including PsycInfo, ERIC and Professional Development Collection for articles pertaining to promising practices in professional development and evaluating professional development. In addition to searching the library database, we conducted Google searches. We used various search terms and key words including the following: professional development and out-of-school time; professional development and program quality; promising practices and out of school time; professional development and afterschool; professional development and quality; evaluating professional development; afterschool and quality; out-of-school time; and afterschool. These searches yielded several citations. We reviewed the citations and chose articles based on the following domains: Defining Professional Development; Goals and Objectives; Integrating Staff Needs and Input; Professional Development Standards;Designing and Implementing Workshops; Additional Professional Development Formats; and Evaluation.
