Time management using Microsoft Outlook calendar – reminders, appointment tools
The training is designed to support individual teacher growth and development. Sometimes it is just planting a seed, an idea, or overcoming a fear of trying something new. By having a scheduled date, teachers know they can come back and add to their knowledge base. We also leave ourselves open and available to help them when they need it – in the classroom. Teachers and staff are encouraged to share what they know. Sometimes this happens between two teachers, or in a small group, or even leading the technology training.
