What makes great professional development? We spoke with Justin Hardman, the founder and Director of 21st Century Learning, about professional development for international educators.
Since 2012, 21st Century Learning has connected more than 20,000 K-12 educators with a wide variety of face-to-face and online professional learning opportunities. Beyond professional learning, Justin has a passion for supporting schools in better-integrating technology into school programs with a focus on strategy, leadership, and planning for systemic change. He was Director of Technology at Hong Kong International School and has led EdTech consultancy projects with many of the leading international schools in the Asia Pacific region.
Our Guiding Questions were, “What does the landscape of professional learning opportunities look like? What is the menu of offerings for educators to design personalized learning plans?”
Here are some of the topics covered:
- The mission of the 21st Century Learning company
- The learning pathways it provides for international educators
- Ways that educators can become PD providers
- A menu of professional learning offerings
- The role of Generative AI in professional development
- Some thoughts on how school leaders can design and implement professional learning opportunities for their communities
- Ways that schools can design PD programs that connect to student learning while working to gather data on their implementation, thus building in feedback loops for PD.
