As educators, we strive to integrate technology into our instruction every day. But how often are we actually learning in an online setting? Now, we invite you to be a professional online learner and participate in SCCOE’s Professional Innovation Pathways. Each course and academy focuses on a unique digital theme, relevant research, and best practices of digital learning.
Description
Building a growth mindset is more than implementing a curriculum or opening a box of books. It's a belief that could require changing deep-seated understandings about one's self. Having an understanding of mindset, and employing some basic strategies and tech tools will help all educators create an environment that instills growth in children.
