The framework matrix as a whole provides a view of how professional learning could lead to improved educators’ knowledge, practices, and dispositions and, at the same time, increase equitable learning opportunities for their students.

Professional learning that focuses on equitable access, opportunities, and outcomes for all students is embedded in a system in which school leaders, district staff, teacher leaders, and all educators that have the responsibility to teach students are committed to creating a culture and structure for continuous learning and improvement.  This Framework could be a valuable reference point in helping all members of the education community to examine and sustain a professional learning experience that builds their capacity to improve their leading, teaching, and learning through the lens of equity. In this sense, the elements of the framework should be used to reflect, inform, and adapt professional learning experiences that fits their contexts and needs. An individual might hold multiple roles at any given time in the educational system and therefore use multiple lenses.
