[MLTI-HS] Regional Professional Development Sessions for HS Educators

Re: Regional Professional Development Sessions for Educators


Now that the MLTI MacBooks have been distributed, many of you are  
facing the challenge of understanding how to best use this tremendous  
opportunity to improve teaching and learning within your curriculum  
area.

We have scheduled multiple Regional Professional Development Sessions  
that will bring together high school educators from across the  
content areas to learn and share how these tools and resources can  
enhance and transform teaching and learning.

The meetings are not an “etched in stone” agenda but will familiarize  
you with the basic use of web tools available on your new MacBook.  
The goals for the day will be to: 1. Practice using three universal  
literacy strategies and 2. Practice ways to develop content for  
lessons using NoteShare, iTunes, podcasting and Studywiz.

Please register for a session at: http://www.maine.gov/mlti/ 
educator/.  You can find a listing of dates below.  We’ve tried to  
provide you with more options by scheduling two locations per day.   
Please select only ONE meeting date/location to attend.
