Supporting educators with high-quality professional learning is needed now more than ever. As we emerge from the pandemic and adjust to a new landscape, educators, students, and families are facing challenges that impact both learning and wellness.
One of the silver linings of the pandemic has been virtual professional learning that provides greater personalization, flexibility, and collaboration. It not only improves educator practices, but can support all staff, and even helps with staff retention and well-being.
edWeb provides the resources for education leaders to offer a higher level of support for your entire staff, with access to 3,000 expert presentations on over 100 different topic areas you can align with district goals and extend the learning, all on one virtual platform.
This PD in Action edLeader Panel is presented by Melissa Hodgson, edWeb Manager of Professional Learning, and Dr. Robin Knutelsky, Director of Curriculum, Instruction, Assessment, and Human Resources at Northern Highlands Regional High School (NJ). In this presentation, you learn:
- Nine best practices of virtual professional learning and how you can put best practice into real practice with edWeb
- How you can implement a robust support system for your entire staff with edWeb’s virtual professional learning resources
- Why supporting educators with high-quality professional learning improves educator learning, enjoyment, and well-being
This edLeader Panel is the first in a new series from edWeb: PD in Action.
This recorded edLeader Panel is of interest to PreK-12 lead teachers, school and district leaders, education technology leaders, district PD coordinators, and pre-service teacher program directors.
