Virtual Mini-PDs
Teacher learning is not canceled.
Description: In this session, we’ll unpack several video examples of “live” instruction from virtual classrooms across the country to demystify what it means to facilitate effective Synchronous Learning. Together, we’ll explore how you can use this “live” virtual format to build relationships and make the often-passive nature of online learning feel more interactive and engaging. We’ll also discuss why the label of “Synchronous Lesson” can be a bit of a misnomer, as this form of instruction often works best when you blend it with Asynchronous moments.

Description: Providing students with actionable feedback in a virtual setting is one of the most powerful ways that educators can personalize instruction, invest students in completing their work with quality, and increase their odds of success. This session will expose teachers to the digital tools and best practices teachers are using to efficiently and effectively provide students with timely feedback on their asynchronous work.

Description: Teachers will walk away with strategies that Ednovate teachers are using to help that last 10-15% of our scholars successfully complete their work. It will build on the principles from the last mini-PD, but will focus on the replicable moves that are helping students who are struggling to meet deadlines and to “catch up” if they’ve fallen behind.

Description: Given that most of the instruction our students are receiving is asynchronous, one of our best proxies for whether students are learning is the rate at which they are completing high-quality work. In this required PD, teachers will look at the teacher plans and design practices that are leading to greater rates of completion, engagement, and deeper learning. Educators will learn ways they can add to and refine their design practices so that their students get the most out of the lessons that they work hard to produce.
