HOW CAN IT WORK FOR YOUR SCHOOL?
Here is a case study of one way a school can take advantage of the Professional Development Premium Bundle.
Let's say a school has been using Career Choices for at least a year. They are interested in going to the next level of the Get Focused...Stay Focused!® school-wide program. Here's what they can do easily with a license to the Professional Development Premium Bundle:
- A 60-minute personalized coaching session via phone or Webex. The leadership team meets virtually for the one-hour online meeting with an Academic Innovations curriculum support advisor to develop a yearlong professional development plan for the whole school using the tools in the Professional Development Premium Bundle package.
- The Online 10-Step Plan for Implementing a Get Focused...Stay Focused!® or Freshman Transition program, is used by the leadership teams for systematic, step-by-step, best practice strategies as they finalize their detailed plans.
- Three eCourses of their choice. The three eCourses are used by:
- Principal or Vice Principal in charge of curriculum or student services (Start up Strategies for Principals and Administrators or Implementing the Stay Focused! Follow-Up Modules)
- Lead Teacher (TIPS: Teaching Insights, Practices, & Solutions)
- Guidance Chair (Whole-School Guidance and Academic Coaching Strategies)
- The Teachers' Lounge. Because the goal is for the whole school to use My10yearPlan.com® for advisory and academic coaching, all staff on campus are assigned the appropriate Quick Start Study Guide for Guidance on the Teachers' Lounge so they understand the basics of academic coaching strategies and accessing My10yearPlan.com®.
- Academic Innovations University's video tutorials. In department meetings, the professional development continues to support all staff with the PLC-type activities included in the Academic Innovations University video tutorials.
- The rollout of the Get Focused...Stay Focused!® Follow-Up Modules. Because the school also wants to start or enhance their Get Focused...Stay Focused!® Follow-Up Modules, all staff teaching the units in their academic classes are assigned the Quick Start Study Guide for Follow-Up Modules. The video tutorials are then shared in their department PLC meeting.
- Whole-school professional development for all stakeholders (staff, parents, and school board members). The whole school would continue throughout the year to have access to the 100+ video tutorials on Academic Innovations University. Many of these can be shown at staff meetings, parent nights, and at community meetings.
