  • Resources for professional development come in many forms; Collaboration, Organizations, Publications, and Education.
  • I was quick to develop a network of other professionals that were also just starting out as a support team. I also developed a good relationship with a few other professionals who had been teaching for years. These professional relationships gave me a network of people to turn to for professional advice, input, and to bounce a few ideas off of. This is the most important place to go for professional development. It’s free and it’s the most helpful resource there is.

  • Twitter is one of my favorite places to gather information on education trends.
  • Start off by following educators with similar interests and organizations that share ideas you can use in your classroom. You can search by hashtags like #mlearning or #STEM to find tweets in an area you are interested in learning more about.
  • If you become overwhelmed because the volume is getting just too big, divide them into lists to make navigating your Twitter feed a little easier. This way, you have one spot dedicated to colleagues in your school or local community, another for people you've heard speak at a conference, and a space just for following along with current events. My go-to list is titled "ADEs and EdTech Leaders," which I created to list some of my favorite tweeters.

  • Lots of organizations now offer live and on-demand webinars for busy teachers.
  • Many webinars offer a back channel so that participants can share ideas and strategies with other attendees. If you're not able to make a scheduled webinar, there are some that can be accessed on demand, allowing teachers to watch at a time that is convenient for them. SimpleK12 has free weekend webinar events where teachers can learn about best practices.
  • When you're looking to try out a new app or web-based tool, search for the product developer's website to see if their homepage includes a video to watch.
  • try hosting a Google Hangout.
  • treat the meetup like a book club.
  • I'm always coming across great articles on education thanks to my personal learning network on Twitter and other social media sites.

  • Nine studies show teachers that receive substantial professional development increase their students’ scores by 21 percentile points.
  • Great PD can often come with a great price tag to match. The cost of a conference can be hundreds of dollars, not to mention the travel costs. While some conferences will cover your meals, you still have to figure in the price of exploring, parking at the airport, and those exhibit hall deals you can’t pass up. If you get sticker shock, it’s time to think about ways to fund your adventures.
  • Education grants exist for nearly everything.
  • ...8 more annotations...
  • Search for your interests and there is a grant to match — guaranteed.
  • If the grant is for high school teachers, you will not get it teaching kindergarten. Don’t waste your time. Read the requirements and make sure your needs match.
  • Explicitly say that you need this grant and why.
  • If a grant says to write in 300 words, don’t use 302.
  • Watch your grammar. You are an educator and no one will fund an illiterate teacher.
  • Even if it isn’t asked for, find a chance to say that you are extending the learning to others. How can you share this information you learn with collegues? How can you take this opportunity and expand on it in your school?
  • Showing that by paying for you they are reaching many more is important.

  • People often tweet things they have read and approved and hence the high likelihood of finding relevant materials in Twitter search than Google search.
  • Hashtags are great for creating a community around a topic.
  • This is my favourite web tool I use to organize and check my Twitter feeds. Using this app you can create columns for specific hashtags and each time you log in to Tweetdeck you will see the latest tweets shared using that hashtag. This way you can always stay on top of what is being shared in educational twitter chats.
