Free online, peer-driven PD

I am writing to let everyone know about the new School of Ed at P2PU.

This is a pilot program offering seven free PD courses for K-12 focused on peer learning. The School of Ed is about hands-on learning driven by each educator's particular needs and classroom situations. It's about connecting, collaborating, and creating, not just reading or studying.

All the courses are now open for sign-up. Enrollment space is limited.

Sign-up is open now for these courses that begin in Sept. and Oct.

• Differentiating Instruction
• Student Engagement
• OER in the K-12 Classroom
• Using Web 2.0 and Social Media to Encourage Deeper Learning
• Teaching in Blended and Online Classrooms
• Multimedia and Graphics to Facilitate Deeper Learning
• Writing & Common Core: Deeper Learning for All

One of the most exciting things about this project is that all the content is open-licensed which means that anyone can use it for any purpose they like. We hope lots of folks will benefit from this.

If you'd like to participate in this project or have ideas about it's future, I'd love to hear from you.
