As we head into the month of May, our certification course participants are busy preparing to submit their final learning projects. Here, course participants have the opportunity to showcase their learning and reflect on how they can begin to implement what they have learned from the course into their own unique contexts. We can’t wait to see what great ideas this passionate group of educators will come up with! In addition to individual projects, this cohort has also shared some great insights on our discussion boards. Topics of discussion this week have included: strategies to support reluctant learners, how to use MARIO for Me software to guide one-to-one sessions with learners and monitor student growth, and the benefits of taking professional learning courses with colleagues to consolidate learning and help to put theoretical ideas into action. We love seeing our participants collaborate with one another in this digital space! 

Behind the scenes, the Professional Learning Team is hard at work creating new self-study courses that will be available this fall. These courses are specifically designed for professionals who want to explore a particular educational interest or up-skill in a certain area with the flexibility of an asynchronous course model. Stay tuned for more exciting updates coming soon!
