Welcome, Oswego Educators!
We are very excited to announce a new professional development opportunity for all instructional staff! This year, we’re partnering with the Teaching Channel to offer a variety of dynamic three-hour courses.
To provide you with greater flexibility and choice regarding your professional learning, you will have the option to take one course on our November 10th Superintendent’s Conference Day and another on our March 9th Superintendent’s Conference Day. While the courses will be online, they are designed to be interactive. You’ll not only learn new skills but also have a chance to engage in small group discussions to share your insights and collaborate with your colleagues.
We look forward to hearing your insights and seeing the innovative ideas you bring back to our students! Please reach out to Amanda Caldwell ([email protected]) with questions.
Key Details:
- Format: asynchronous, online, and interactive three-hour sessions with small-group discussions, collaboration, and time to apply what you learn to your classroom for immediate impact.
