There are two important updates regarding our February Agency-Directed Learning scheduled in Johnston on Feb. 5, 6, 10 or 11, 2020.
1. Who needs to attend in February?
We continue to use feedback to enhance our Agency Professional Learning Cascade. In order to design differentiated and deep learning, we are continuing to narrow the focus of our learning by reducing the number of topics in each learning opportunity. This narrower, deeper focus results in a continued need to thoughtfully consider which job-alike groups' roles are aligned with the content and learning.
Therefore, only certain job-alike groups will be attending the morning portion of Agency-Directed Learning in February. Review this document to determine if your job-alike group will be participating in your assigned Agency-Directed Learning session.
Please note: All staff is asked to participate in the job-alike afternoon session of these ADL days in February. Details of these sessions will be provided by your Job-Alike Facilitator.
2. Requested Action Prior to Sessions for School-Aged Assignment Staff (School Psychologists and Special Education Consultants)
Please engage in two online statewide SDI modules PRIOR to your Agency-Directed Learning date (Feb. 5 or Feb. 6). These sessions will activate prior knowledge and ensure a common understanding and vocabulary for our face-to-face time together in February.
Modules are located in the AEA Learning Online training system. After logging into the system, search "SDI" and locate the Specially Designed Instruction (SDI): Overview and Specially Designed Instruction (SDI): Diagnose for Instructional Design modules. The completion of both modules should take 30-35 minutes.
If you have any questions, contact your regional director or Martha Condon, Director of Professional Learning.
