Innovative Ideas for Professional Learning

In this edWeb.net podcast, Larry Jacobs, the host of Education Talk Radio, had a conversation this week with edWeb CEO Lisa Schmucki and Manager of Member Services Melissa Hodgson to discuss why virtual professional learning is a "silver lining" of the pandemic for teachers, administrators, and staff.With new educators entering classrooms and the high need for addressing mental health and wellness in schools, preparation and resources are more important now than ever before. Listeners will hear why social-emotional learning (SEL) is the most popular topic for edWebinars right now, why educators turn to edWeb to meet their professional learning needs, and how edWeb’s sponsors and partners are helping to provide the most up to date content and strategies for teaching, learning, and leading. To help educators with the realities of post-pandemic education, Lisa and Melissa introduce listeners to two exciting new opportunities: edWeb Coffee Chats, a forum for educator-guests to share ideas and strategies to invigorate and energize professional learning in schools; and Jobs4Ed, a new job board for education professionals that matches edWeb members with recommended jobs. This edWeb podcast is of interest to teachers, librarians, school and district leaders, and education technology leaders of PK-12 and higher education levels.Listen to other Education Talk Radio interviews with edWeb:Virtual Professional Learning: Support Educators Anytime, AnywhereBest Practices for Virtual Professional LearningEducation Talk Radio with Larry JacobsLarry Jacobs hosts conversations with innovative educators, authors and thought leaders in educationDisclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.
