What educators are saying:

  • Echoes from the Lowcountry 
    "This PD is excellent."
     
  • The Power of Words: Engaging Families through Effective Communication 
    "The training was a strong reminder of the importance of home/school communication for the success of the student and the school as a whole."
     
  • Adventure Awaits: Integrating SCETV Virtual Field Trips into your Curriculum 
    "This training was perfect for me!" 
     
  • Effectively Using Media in the Classroom 
    "This training has significantly deepened my understanding of how to effectively and intentionally integrate media into instruction. I now recognize that media is not just a way to make lessons more visually appealing, but a powerful tool for enhancing engagement, supporting multiple learning modalities, and promoting deeper understanding. I’ve also gained skills in evaluating media for instructional alignment, accessibility, and accuracy, which will help me select resources that genuinely support learning objectives rather than distract from them." 
     
  • Canva for Education: Canva 101 
    "My students already use Canva, and I feel as though I have been left behind. After I explore it a little more, I should be able to integrate assignments in Canva into my classroom. I have tried in the past, but it was hard for me because I didn't truly understand it. Now I feel a little more comfortable with the platform." 
     
  • Unlocking the Power of Small Groups 
    "Honestly, at the high school level, I had not considered the impact that small groups could make in my classroom. When you think about small groups, you typically think about elementary or special education. I can see how this could play a pivotal role in differentiation of instruction and be extremely useful to my students."
