BELLEVUE, WA, February 27, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- "Now, more than ever", suggests Adam Smith, CEO of SchoolKiT, "Administrators are able to witness the immediate impact of professional development on student academic outcomes. Using the new integration activity library in pd21, every educator, regardless of their comfort level, is now able to use technology as a tool to promote rigor, relevance and student engagement in every classroom."
"pd21 is a highly valued resource in our district, " states Ronda Stonecipher, Director of Instructional Technology in the San Marcos CISD in Texas. "It has empowered our teachers with the integration skills, instructional strategies and job-embedded learning needed to engage students, reach curriculum goals and improve learning outcomes. The recent additional of the in2class library with over 150 classroom-ready integration activities will make it even more valuable by promoting job-embedded professional learning and taking it directly into the classroom - where it belongs."
pd21 is a flexible, online K-12 professional development system for educators that guides teachers in seamlessly integrating technology and 21st Century instruction into a standards-based lesson design process to meet curriculum goals and maximize learning. Its flexible, project-based format accommodates different learning styles and preferences, and moves teachers from basic technology skills and subject-specific integration, to generalizing technology integration principles and finally to independence and leadership. The recent inclusion of the in2class library with inquiry-based, classroom-ready activities will simultaneously enrich standards-based instruction in K-12 Math, Science, Language Arts, and Social Studies while also providing an opportunity for professional learning to immediately impact student learning.
