As a long-time educator, I have a general question, how do you find professional development opportunities for yourself or your faculty? Do you rely on word of mouth, a list from your district, online resources, or an organization you’re involved with?

I explore online platforms like Annenberg Learner, which offers video workshops and helpful resources for teachers. It’s free for K-12 educators.

As an educator, I’ve always found that a mix of strategies works best for finding professional development opportunities. I often rely on recommendations from colleagues and professional networks for insights on valuable programs. Additionally, I check with my district for any organized workshops or training sessions they offer. Online resources and platforms like LinkedIn Learning or Coursera also provide a wide range of courses tailored to educators. Being involved in professional organizations helps too, as they frequently offer specialized development opportunities and resources. Balancing these methods ensures I stay updated and continually improve my skills.

Place a millimeter ruler flat against your brow and hold it over your eyes. When you connect the zero of the ruler with the middle of your left pupil, close your right eye. Open your left eye and close your right eye without moving the ruler. Your PD is the distance measured to the center of your right pupil.
