  <abstract>Handbook of Professional Development in Education: Successful Models and Practices, PreK–12 is an edited volume that presents research-based approaches to professional development for teachers, administrators, and educational leaders. The book examines effective models of professional learning that improve teaching practices and student achievement across PreK–12 educational settings.

The contributors discuss topics such as teacher learning communities, mentoring, coaching, instructional leadership, technology integration, literacy development, mathematics education, curriculum improvement, and assessment. The volume emphasizes collaborative and sustained professional development rather than one-time training programs.

Designed for educators, researchers, policymakers, and school administrators, the handbook provides practical examples and evidence-based strategies for enhancing teacher effectiveness and school improvement.</abstract>
