Post-InstitutePD

Consider a topic you would like to cover within the first month and create a PD session that you could use for that topic. Use the guidelines below to help you in the process. Also, remember to post your final product below or provide a link to your final product below.

**Tina Webster, Asheboro High School** This wiki will eventually be a finished product utilizing the 21st Century Skills maps and lesson planning for teachers. This is a work in progress at this point. Using a wiki will hopefully get my faculty more comfortable with using wikis. The session will be titled 21st Century PD..

For an upcoming staff development, I developed The Cardinal is Going Green which will be used as a learning portal. All materials, links, resources, and evaluations will be housed here in one location. Instead of emailing each teacher reminders and resources, they will access this site to find all materials. The participants will also be able to see how an online classroom can function. The course will cover social networking and digital communications and online file storage using Gaggle.net, dimdim, polleverywhere, and more.
