Shodor Offering Spring Online Professional Development Course

Shodor is offering a Spring professional development course for middle school and high school math, science, and technology teachers.

The course, hosted by LearnNC, will explore the myriad resources available to faculty (for free!) through the National STEM Digital Library (NSDL). Participants will learn to use this collection of resources to find and implement the tools most relevant to their classroom. In individual and group activities participants will learn strategies for searching, self-reflection, and identifying resources. Participants will also review and discuss lessons learned within and throughout the course. In a final culminating project, participants will then take advantage of the resources explored in this online course and create a lesson plan personalized for their uses.

The course begins February 9th 2011 and will last for 6 weeks. Please visit http://www.learnnc.org/courses/catalog/stem_digital_library to find more information or to register.
