Sample educator feedback:
| Subject | Quotes |
| SOST | From Standards to Success: Planning & Assessing for the U.S. History EOCEP "This training gave me a clearer understanding of how to unpack the standards which will aid in my planning and execution of my lessons and assessments. It helped me to include more open-ended and performance-based tasks that allow for deeper insight into student analytical thinking." From Standards to Success: Expansion, Sectionalism, and Reconstruction "This training significantly strengthened my understanding of how to design instruction and assessment with intentional alignment and purpose. Before this process, I tended to think of lessons and assessments as somewhat separate, but this experience helped me see how closely they should be connected. I now have a clearer understanding of how to start with standards and EOCEP expectations, then design lessons, formative checks, and assessments that all build toward the same goal." Thinking Like a Historian: Understanding and Teaching Historical Thinking Skills in South Carolina Social Studies "The training increased my understanding of content more and how to apply each skill to lessons. I can better prepare lessons and activities for my students to increase their understanding of content and to prepare for the EOC." |
| SCIE | Biology Unlocked: Designing High-Impact Instruction to Master Standards and Ace the EOC "This training has helped me to see that I need to adjust my teaching and assessment styles to better sere my students. As a veteran teacher of 34 years, things have changed. Student learning styles have changed and I need to adjust to those changes." |
| INST TECH | Canva for Education: Canva 101 "I think the format of this training was appropriate for teachers, given the timing and the activities planned to deliver the content. It would be great to assign during those teacher workdays in which we can receive professional development that adapts and is practical for us." Effectively Using Media in the Classroom "The training on adding media to instruction strengthened my understanding of how intentional media use can deepen learning rather than simply increase engagement. I became more skilled at selecting media that directly supports learning objectives... " |
| MATH | Math IRL "This training provided me with several strategies to incorporate real-world examples, and activities in my lesson" Math with SC Athletes "This training gave me practical ideas for integrating math concepts like statistics, probability, and data analysis into athletics, making it easier to engage students in STEM topics" Navigating Secondary Math Standards: Unpacking & Applying "Training on unpacking the standards significantly improved my understanding of how to plan instruction with greater clarity and purpose. It helped me see that standards often contain multiple skills, concepts, and levels of rigor that can easily be overlooked if they are not broken down intentionally. By unpacking standards, I am now better able to identify prerequisite skills, key vocabulary, and exactly what students are expected to demonstrate. This has strengthened my ability to write clear, measurable learning objectives and align lessons, activities, and assessments more closely to the standard. Overall, the training improved my planning skills and increased my confidence in designing instruction that is focused, intentional, and more likely to support student mastery." |
| ELA | Book Clubs for Student Voice and Literacy Growth "This training strengthened my ability to integrate interdisciplinary approaches into literature instruction, particularly connecting historical context with poetic analysis. I gained practical strategies for differentiating instruction for mixed-ability learners using the gradual release model." |
| General | The Power of Words: Engaging Families through Effective Communication "I found this training to be very valuable in deepening my understanding of family engagement and effective communication strategies. The information was clear, practical, and directly applicable to real classroom situations..." Adventure Awaits: Integrating SCETV Virtual Field Trips into your Curriculum "This training had a positive impact on both my understanding and instructional planning skills. It helped me better understand how virtual field trips and interactive experiences can be intentionally aligned with grade-level standards rather than used as an “extra” activity. I gained a clearer picture of how important the before, during, and after phases are in ensuring that students are engaged, focused, and able to reflect on their learning." 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." |
| Early Learning | Little Learners, Big Standards: A Snapshot of SC-ELS "...It also improved my skills in planning lessons, selecting activities, and observing children in ways that align with the standards. Overall, the training helps bridge theory and practice, giving me confidence to create learning experiences that promote curiosity, persistence, and foundational skills for future academic success." |
