A New Approach To Teacher PD ... Ei360°

Professional Development is not functional for traditional teachers.  Most schools, make traditional teachers look for opportunities outside of their job.  In the state of Indiana, teachers need 90 points to renew their professional educators license, 40 points for a practitioners license, and 36 points for an educational interpreters license.

How many Hours does it take to keep your license?

If we were to calculate how many hours a teacher needs to clear a professional license, that’s over 90 hours; outside of work.  This does not include the research it takes to find adequate opportunities that will count towards a school’s Professional Growth Points.  Finally, is a teachers reimbursement check for food, sometimes teachers don’t get per-diem back and are forced to pay for unseen circumstances.

Growing and Seeking out Opportunities

It is very difficult as an administrator to design a Professional development that fill fit the needs of your staff.  Howmany times does your Technology Specialist, Sped Teacher, or Speech Therapist on staff have to listen to a Math lesson?  At Ei360° we know that there is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all plan.  Every teacher has their own goals, needs, and wants.  That’s what sets Ei360° apart from the rest, we provide teachers with a collaboration partner (eCoach) that will guide them through the year with best practices, emotional support, and video next steps.  Three conversations a year from an administrator is not enough to help teachers in need, all teaches need more help.

Opportunities for Growth

Rapid growth in technology has allowed districts to support collaborative growth formats such as 1:1 models and webinars.  Teachers want to focus on individual areas of growth.  Educational Innovation 360° utilizes a collaborator model while documenting best practices to support teachers throughout the year.  Teachers want to work in individual areas for growth while interacting with an expert.  At Ei360°, teachers get what they need and more.  We provide teachers with mini action plans, scaffolds for novice teachers, and data feedback.  We do the research, provide video examples, and give written feedback on growth.

Are you looking to Grow in Silence?

Everyone needs help and support why not work on individual skills and grow in silence.  That’s what makes Ei360° so innovative. The only people that get to see individual data and progress are the district principal and the individual teacher.  "We continue to make gains; our school is successful without anyone knowing how they’ve made tremendous leaps in less than a year," stated principal Beavers.  So, if you are an administrator and want your teachers to grow on their individual plan, call us today. We are ready to do what it takes to grow individual districts.References:https://www.educationdive.com/news/6-k-12-trends-to-watch-in-2019/543915/
