Description
With the current budget crisis, most school districts do not allow teachers to attend PD during the school day. Summer training doesnt allow classroom practice. We have found a solution that works through Project CLUE-Plus- use technology to allow teachers to access PD during the academic year at their own convenience (even on Saturday in their jammies), interact among themselves and project leaders, and be more accountable for their professional learning. Presenters share the format for the PD, samples of the digitized learning modules, and input from the teachers who have worked with the modules.
