It was an exciting summer filled with a variety of professional development opportunities for staff. Professional development is an essential component of the District’s commitment to providing appropriate and effective instruction in an ever changing world. The teachers at the York Suburban School District were given the opportunity to enhance their knowledge in a variety of areas dealing with the integration of technology into the classroom.
One of the recent developments in educational technology is the ability to use devices to actively engage all learners. Those tools assist teachers in determining how well students are mastering new skills, and teachers can modify future instruction to better meet the needs of all learners.
The sessions were facilitated by our own talented York Suburban teachers. As students return to school, they can expect to see thoughtful inclusion of technology as part of a wide variety of instructional strategies utilized by teachers for student success.
