Activity 20: Reading and researching for professional development

Activity 20: Reading and researching for professional development

This is the final activity. A good teacher keeps up to date with ideas about the content of the subjects they teach and the way they are taught. Access to online information allows this process to happen in a much simpler and cheaper way than in pre-Internet days. This activity does require Internet access.

Identify two or three websites that you feel you will be accessing regularly to further your own professional development. Do this individually or in pairs and then share your ideas with the other teachers in the school. You could then prepare a “school list” of sites and take it in turns (on a termly basis maybe) to keep the list updated.
