Instructional Technology Professional Development

In this session, we'll explore the What and Why of SEL and several key factors that contribute to effective implementation of SEL into your learning environment. We will focus on the educator point of view through self-assessment and explore vignettes to build capacity of what SEL is and how it relates to your personal life and provide strategies would you use to help the integrate and model for learners.

This professional development opportunity was created by eTeachNY and brought to you free of charge through the Teaching in Remote Learning Environment (TRLE) Grant. eTeachNY is a coalition of education partners who have come together to support the implementation of the Teaching in Remote Learning Environments Initiative.

In this session, participants will develop an understanding of how to include home language supports in content area instruction. Included in this training, participants will receive access to short webinettes created by content area teachers and ENL teachers, to help engage ELLs in the content areas. Webinettes will be shared in Science and Math, and additional webinettes will be coming in ELA and in Social Studies. The webinettes are delivered in simplified English, plus 10 additional languages. The webinettes can be used with students, both in remote learning and in hybrid learning environments, can be used with parents to support their children at home, and can also be used in in-person classes to help ELLs build foundational skills and knowledge. Approximately one day prior to the session, participants registered will receive a Zoom link for the training. As a result of participating in this session, teachers will have a deeper understanding of how to support their ELLs using home language without seeking fully translated texts and/or lessons.

The shift of teaching and learning from in-person to remote/hybrid has greatly impacted how we support students' academic progress. Relationships, routines, and resources are the foundation for effective partnerships. In this session, we will dive deeper into these areas and explore research-based best practices that educators can leverage to strengthen connections with families.

In this session, we will be exploring how adults in education can begin to understand and recognize self-awareness related to implicit bias and social awareness to better understand the perspectives of others.

Through a review of transformative SEL, we will continue deepening our understanding of the CASEL Core Competencies to promote and leverage equity and promote personal growth. This deepening awareness contributes to healthier culture and climate of schools, and the overall professional learning community.

No need to have attended any other SEL session to attend this one! You are welcome even if this is your first.

Part three of Fine Tuning Your Hybrid/Remote Learning Community focuses on fostering relationships between peers. Participants will reflect on their own practice and identify what needs to be fine-tuned for all students, while taking into consideration the needs of their students with disabilities. Once participants complete this third and final session in the series, they will have an implementation plan ready to go.

Feel free to join even if you did not participate in Parts 1 and/or 2!
