In my search for professional development opportunities for me and the curriculum development team, I came across the website for ASCD (The Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development). Some of you may already be aware of what ASCD offers, but for those who aren't familiar with them, I thought I would share what I found.
ASCD holds a yearly conference, and also has a wide variety of books, videos and webinars. ASCD is an American association, but I think many of the webinars they offer are applicable to our department and our professional development needs. The webinars are all archived and they can be accessed at the ASCD website under Professional Development (and they're free!). This kind of professional development also lends itself well to group learning. If you and a couple colleagues are interested in the same topic, you could book a room and attend the webinar together. Happy learning!
