“Creative classrooms don’t just look different, they feel different. They provide an environment where students are more likely to express their ideas, think outside the box, challenge problems with innovative solutions and most importantly – learn faster and more effectively.”

Professional Development for Educators in 2021

  

I will be the first to admit that I have not been dominating my journey as a lifelong learner over the last year, but I am committing today to make the change to be a more active learner. I love learning and I need to remember how important it is to grow as a learner and educator. This is something I believe the best educators do everyday. 

Today I wanted to share some of the professional development opportunities that I am extremely excited to explore in 2021.

This will be a list that I will update over the next several months as I discover new learning opportunities, so be sure to check back in the future to see what I've added. Also, if you have any suggestions please let me know on Twitter or by posting in the comments below. 

IDEAcon and TCEA Featured Authors - Book Recommendations for All Educators in 2021

The IDEAcon and TCEA Virtual Conferences kicks off February 1st and I am really excited about the conference book study this year.


While the book study is focused on 4 authors, it got me thinking about all of the other great educational authors who will be part of this years IDEAcon / TCEA experience. Today I wanted to share some of the featured conference authors and their most recent books. It really is an awesome collection of books and authors.

IDEAcon and TCEA Virtual Conference Extravaganza - Coming to A Screen Near You This February 2021


I think Charles Dickens could have been talking about this year. I don't need to tell anyone that remote teaching and learning has been a challenge, but this challenge also led to new ideas and new ways of getting stuff done. In the long run I am hopeful that teaching and learning will be in a better place. 

Educational Conferences have needed to adjust and this has led to some incredible learning experiences for educators across the world. Don't get me wrong, I've missed being able to attend face to face conferences this year. While I've had the chance to attend several great virtual conferences this year, it isn't quite the same. I really miss the unscripted and learning experiences that happen so often happen when groups of educators get together in the same physical space.
