A time was had at the WCPSS Future Teachers conference this week! From 'jigsaw'-ing articles to hands-free cup stacking, Erin and I dove into PLC one activity at a time. We're excited to see what these future teachers will achieve! WCPSS Future Teachers ProfessionalLearning Erin Thaler

ProfessionalLearning team members turned a “group project” into a “team cooperative project” by: 1) assigning roles and 2) limiting resources in our Kagan Publishing & Professional Development Cooperative Learning Day 5 workshop yesterday in Cary, NC.

🎉Get ready for some engaging experiences ahead as this group of educators incorporate @kaganonline learning structures into their practice! 🚀 Rick DuVall, Ph.D.

Spending 5 days working w/ positive, energetic, dedicated educators like I’ve gotten to do in Wakecountypublicschool w/ our Kagan Publishing & Professional Development Days 1-5 Cooperative Learning workshops & I can’t stop smiling. I’m at the Raleigh airport, and have already received two kind emails from participants!

Around and around, they go! Participants engaged in the 'Carousal Feedback' Kagan Cooperative Learning Structure as a way to efficiently present and provide feedback on their team projects. Rick DuVall, Ph.D. Kagan Publishing & Professional Development
