Professional Learning
Professional learning is not just four times a year at district Professional Development. It is the goals you set for yourself. It is professional conversations you have over an article or Twitter post. It is the book you read given to you by a fellow colleague. A conversation during PLC (Professional Learning Communities) when you learn more about a standard that seems complex. Each and every day there are professional learning opportunities at your fingertips. Check out sessions to help you get started learning or explore different ideas for designing professional learning sessions.
