Virtual Professional Learning
Not your average professional development session.
The DLC team, all former teachers ourselves, realizes that another PD session is often the least favorite part of a teacher’s job. While some sessions are great, many seems to forget best practices for learning that they preach.
We take an alternative approach to professional learning that engages teachers in both self-directed and collaborative methods. Registering in any of the courses below allows access to a self-paced course full of learning and resources, as well as opportunities to interact and collaborate with other course-takers.
We’re excited to connect with you and further, to connect you to the resources you need to help you feel confident in your ability to support all learners. Please contact Mary@diverselearnerscoop.com with any questions.
