So what is a PD?
PD is an abbreviation for Professional Development. For teachers it is an information or training session where they can learn new skills and develop professionally. The can run from 15 minutes to multi-day conferences, but the end result is the same; a teacher learns something.
With the Facebook PD, you will need to develop 2 parts
Part 1 - is the presentation itself. This is the actual session, where the staff will be your attentive students.
Part 2 - is a supplemental handout, which goes over the information you have provided. It will need to be followed, and allow a novice to start on the path to Facebook use. It should include any useful links that could be of assistance.
