Beyond the Buzz: Making Professional Learning Stick with Lauren Merkley
Our host, Kiera, sat down with Lauren Merkley, Teacher Fellow and UCET Featured Speaker, to discuss the professional learning standard of Implementation. Find the rest of the standards here: https://www.schools.utah.gov/curr/educatordevelopment/professionallearning
Over the course of the episode, we dive into some of the following questions:
- As a teacher, how did you design learning for your students to (hopefully) have a long-term impact? How does that apply to professionally learning?
- What recommendations do you have as a classroom teacher for people who provide professional learning for teachers? What can they do to make PD memorable and great?
- How do you measure the effectiveness in facilitating long-term change? Both as a teacher, and as a Fellow, and as keynote speaker? Is it even possible?
