Upcoming Professional Learning Opportunities

Building Back Better 1.1 (Virtual)
Course #190189 - click on link to register 
September 14-October 12 

Building Back Better is designed with The Distance Learning Playbook as the foundation of the course. The Distance Learning Playbook is an incredible resource with support for teachers and administrators. It provides information for areas that many schools may be experiencing gaps in for students in multiple learning environments. Throughout this course, with the support of the playbook, we introduce practical easy to implement ideas. For example, participants will see how to start and end a class, the social-emotional support needed, and setting up norms to develop a safe culture for students to learn at high levels. This resource is ideal for schools that are looking for answers to a whole-child approach within a gradual release model.

Materials Note: Participants must purchase the book The Distance Learning Playbook, Grades K-12: Teaching for Engagement and Impact in Any Setting (1st Edition). *This resource is currently available via Kindle version with anticipated print availability August 2020.

Born at Google and based on neuroscience, the SIY program teaches emotional intelligence skills that lead to sustained peak performance, strong collaboration and effective leadership. SIY increases self-awareness, empathy, communication and resilience. All of these help create positive emotional and mental states for a strong and inspiring leadership presence.
