Professional Development and Keynote Speaker for Teachers and Staff - Jordan H. Davis
Our educators are the soil for the trees that are our students. We must pour into our educators, for they are the ones that foster supportive, fruitful learning environments.
The Problem
In most educational settings, good teaching is encouraged at best. Policies and school leadership deprioritize teacher development, leaving educators burned out and underprepared. Some educators lack the pedagogical and technological skills needed to yield positive learning outcomes in today's classrooms. Applying teaching and learning theory to real teaching situations is crucial, and creating community among students who are still recovering from the social isolation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic can be a daunting task. How can we close opportunity gaps and improve student outcomes overall through good teaching?
