Each of these teachers completed an intensive 2-year professional development program comprising a blend of evening face-to-face sessions and online learning. They explored ways to leverage classroom technology in a constructivist, student-centered approach to increase instructional effectiveness and student achievement.
We thank these teachers and trainers for their hard work and the examples of innovative teaching they have shared with us. If you follow our teacher spotlight series, you have already seen a few of these teachers in action. We look forward to seeing what they do next.
ETEP, Class 1
