Reimagining Middle Grade Educator Professional Learning
Presenters: Danielle Dagounis and Anthony Orsini
Chatham Middle School redesigned its professional learning (PL) program to foster ongoing professional growth through collaboration, feedback, and self-reflection centered around student learning. This session highlights how every aspect of the program, starting with novice educator induction and support through opportunities afforded to all educators, resulted in educator choice, a focus on student learning needs, and meaningful and worthwhile self-directed learning that improved PL attitudes.
