Gamify and Flip Professional Development
•
1 like•847 views
Flipping your classroom is becoming more and more common today. But what about flipping professional development for teachers? What if they could complete much of school's professional development online and meet periodically to discuss what they have done and how it has impacted their teaching? Concordia International School Shanghai is in year one of this experiment and we would like to share with you our successes, and yes, our failures. Specifically, this workshop will cover: * Platforms for building online content * How we used Harry Potter and other incentives to encourage teachers to jump on the PD bandwagon * Tips for creating compelling course content * Marketing tips to encourage staff interest * The importance of humor when asking people to try something different
