New this year is EdTech@YourDoorstep. Because we offer many types of workshops in addition to technology in our department, we have found that we are often pulling teachers in multiple directions. It is also very difficult for districts to find enough substitutes to send teachers to ESU 10. With that in mind, the T&L EdTech Team decided to offer onsite trainings focusing on technology. If a school district has a technology need that the entire staff would benefit from, we are willing and able to go to their building to provide that training.
It's been fun and rewarding to create workshops designed to meet the needs of an individual district. Even better, we have worked hard to offer choice and to personalize the learning for teachers too. We want our teachers to differenetiate with their students, and we should walk the talk when providing professional development!
Blended Learning and SAMR have been the most requested topics so far this school year. I am excited that we have been able to work with so many schools already this year!
