PD Opportunity:
(From Tina) As mentioned in an earlier email, there is a group of teachers that would like to take the Making Learning Visible course starting in late September. Harvard recommends that groups of teachers take the course together (teams of 3-6). When working in a team, members will collaborate on most of the assignments, including the development of a shared project. Team participation not only promotes a deeper and richer learning experience during the course, but also helps to sustain the use of course ideas as well as the professional collaboration outside of the program. If you are interested (even slightly) in the Making Learning Visible course starting September 28, please sign up here.
