Online Learning with Edpuzzle - Become an Edpuzzle expert with their self-paced PD courses. Certifications can be completed in as little as 30 minutes, and you can amass multiple ceritifications for HOURS of PD credit.
Note: Edpuzzle is a digital tool that helps educators take advantage of videos online, as well as make their own, to use in teaching. To assist in professional development, I'll be using Edpuzzle to add videos from YouTube and more, (maybe even screen record our own?), and build in assessments based on that content. Edpuzzle adds accountability with instant feedback options and lays that all out for educators, using straight-forward but helpful analytics. Current Edpuzzle video assessments will be offered on a variety of topics and can be found in the Classwork section of our Glenwood Professional Development Google Classroom.
