Description
Grow your teaching tool kit in this collaborative yet personalized PD! Focusing on our theme of Making Media Matter, we’ll talk about how to READ, USE, and CREATE media in the classroom. From reading videos to creating vlogs, blogs, and podcasts; from designing graphics to analyzing ANY kind of text, we’ll explore fundamental skills and tools to enhance your classroom. You’ll get ideas and inspiration from other teachers in our FOUR virtual meet-ups, then have supported time to explore resources and create your own lessons in our hands-on labs. You’ll leave the course with resources, activities, and lessons ready for the school year. Come grow together.
