We were pleased to hear from Rhonda Carr of Piedmont Community Charter School about what she learned during “The Role of Questioning” NCCAT Online course. The course was designed by NCCAT faculty members Elizabeth Joyce and Amy Jo Spencer.
Participants in NCCAT Online can now receive digital badges as part of the program.
Digital badges are a way to capture and communicate what an individual knows and can demonstrate in any given field. While this electronic method of recognizing an individual’s knowledge and skills has been around for several years, it has recently gained momentum as a way to recognize individual’s learning. Digital badges are a way to certify the skills of a learner in basic education programs that are valued in schools.
Do you need the professional development of an NCCAT seminar but can't afford to be out of the classroom? We have a solution for you...
At the North Carolina Center for the Advancement of Teaching, we work to give teachers the tools that they need in an environment that helps them to succeed and connect powerfully with other teachers. We've found that there are a large number of teachers who are not able to attend our face-to-face seminars and programs but who are looking for programming that connects to their needs.
