 | Well today is my first official day of spring break. My wife and 3 kids had spring break this last week, so we were not able to take a trip this year. But I have found some ways to stay busy and keep learning. Tomorrow, I head to Kentucky to lead a Professional Development with Science and Social Studies teachers at Murray Independent Schools. This is a two day workshop to help them increase student engagement and implement a "Flipped" classroom. Both Mike and Travis will be joining at different times via google hangouts to share their experiences and ideas. I am looking forward to making new friends, share ideas and learn with the good people of Murray, KY. |
When I get back on Wednesday, I am joining an outstanding group of teachers from all over North America in a free Webinar "Experienced Voices". The following is from the Powerful Learning Practices website, the host of the webinar. Click the image below for the full post from Sheryl Nussbaum-Beach. I hope you can join us April 1st (No joke), it should be an insightful learning experience for everyone involved.
What is the Experienced Voices webinar?
- A 1-hour, live webinar held April 1, 2015 at 4:45 PM EDT (New York time)

- A time for sharing and answering questions about student-centered, inquiry-based classrooms
- Any educator interested in inquiry-based, technology-infused, student-centered learning

- Much of what they will share transcends all disciplines – invite a friend, a teacher, or a parent who you think may be interested!
- They are educators knowledgeable in the design of student centered classrooms.
- These folks have been at it a while — they understand the pedagogy and the accompanying technology infusion into learning.
- They clearly see the potential for deeper learning, and they know the challenges and how to overcome them.
