B8- ( No, PD- Kim Good)

I wasn't able to complete my PD plan due to unexpected circumstances in the world around us. I felt no one expected for something like this to take place in the world that would put a big impact on our lives. I had planned on delivering the PD the week after the shutdown. Since I wasn't able to deliver the PD in person I consulted with a team of educators about the possibility of doing an online webinar PD. The pandemic really proved how much we as educators knew about remote learning and how often it was used inside the classroom to transition to a remote setting. In the first couple of weeks, my district offered online training as refresher courses to assist teachers on how to deliver instructions online. Since we just found out that school is out until the end of the year another training has been scheduled.  All the student teachers and internship had to stop indefinite! There was no way that I could have presented the PD through a webinar due to all the teachers I consulted with their students was their main concern and getting training on what the district was offering to support remote learning. 

I used the learning materials from the course to support my design and development by delivering a PD that focuses on teaching strategies associated with specific curriculum content to supports teacher learning within teachers’ classroom contexts. This element includes an intentional focus on discipline-specific curriculum development and pedagogies in areas such as Healthful Living.
