Empowering teachers to maximize student outcomes is a big part of being a K-12 leader. Differentiated instruction is as critical as ever, with fewer teachers, larger class sizes, and diverse populations of students with a range of learning styles and needs. Supporting teachers with so many factors at play is no small task!
During this interactive edWebinar, EdConnective expert coaches guide you to:
- Identify bite-sized strategies you can implement immediately to establish a building-wide culture that meets the needs of all students
- Intentionally build the capacity for teachers to incorporate differentiation strategies to close learning gaps
This is NOT a “sit-and-get” session! This is but a small glimpse of what can be achieved through 1:1 coaching, small group coaching, and interactive workshops.
This recorded edWebinar is most valuable to K-12 school and district leaders, chief academic officers, instructional coaching leaders, directors of special education, and other district teaching and learning leaders.
