Professional Development (24 Hours Required)
District Offerings--Our district plans to offer some additional pd opportunities which can be found looking at the PD Calendar on the district website. While there isn't anything scheduled yet, there are plans to schedule some spring offerings.
This site is the same location we use to complete our PBIS modules, but there are also a few other topics that might be of interest when it comes to PD. Most, if not all, courses are free and once you have completed something, you will be able to print a certificate and turn that into Shaun for PD credit.
This site has a list of free edWebinars that are offered in various categories.
Create a free membership and receive access to videos that introduce you to some of the newest classroom strategies.
This site helps teachers learn how to flip their classrooms and track student progress as well as some free pd.
Offering a series of workshops for professional learning called OK2Ask, you can watch live or archived sessions from a variety of choices.
This site has an extensive archive of webinars that serve as excellent pd opportunities.
If any of these sites don't offer certificates at the end of the session/webinar, just document the date/time/name of content and get with Michelle Sadler to complete a record of hours completed which you can then turn into Shaun for credit.

The dates need to match the date of the actual iLearn day, and the abbreviation of the assignment doesn't have a specific name. It would be easy to abbreviate the assignments using iL1, iL2, etc., but is not required.
