October 28 webinar: Effective Professional Development for Teachers of ELLs: District and School Readiness
What Needs to be in Place for Effective Professional Development for Teachers of English Language Learners?
Wednesday, October 28, 2009, 1:00 p.m. – 2:00 p.m. (Eastern)
Many districts request professional development to help teachers build knowledge and skills to teach English language learners. How can we maximize the effectiveness of this professional development? New England Equity Assistance Center staff will present processes and tools they have found helpful in gauging the readiness of districts and schools to offer effective professional development within a comprehensive program that fully addresses the academic, linguistic, and cultural needs of English language learners.
This webinar is the first in a series titled "Effective Professional Development for Teachers of ELLs." Additional webinars in this series will follow in the winter and spring.
Registration for this webinar is required to receive log in information.
Audience: professional development providers, school and district leaders, instructional coaches, teachers, ELL program directors, state policy makers, school board members
