2018 VA Leadership Institute for SIM PDers: June 26- 28
What a great week. At our Institute there were four apprentices (2 LS and 2 CER). It was nice to see the overlap but also see the differences in the two legs of SIM. Prior to the Institute, I wasn’t as aware of LS and this was a great opportunity to learn more about it. During the institute we didn’t just learn about SIM, we learned about being a professional developer as well. The time spent on the standards for Professional Learning was very useful. It helped to understand how to best implement Professional Learning for teachers. Time was also spent exposing us to additional CER that we had not previously implemented in our classrooms. The follow up two additional dates virtually were productive as well and gave us additional learning.
