WEB-BASED PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES
FOR EDUCATORS
Alabama Public Television and the Alabama State Department
of Education are leading a multi-state collaborative effort
to provide high-quality online staff development programs
for educators. Eight state departments of education and
their public broadcast station partners have joined together
in this ground-breaking partnership to address the critical
needs for accessible professional development opportunities.
e-Learning for Educators is
funded by a Ready to Teach grant from the U.S. Department
of Education. Participating states and organizations
are: Alabama, Delaware, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri,
New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, and West
Virginia. Boston College, Education Development Corporation
(EDC) and Southern Regional Education Board (SREB) are
providing technical assistance, consultation, and evaluation.
Alabama Public Television is administering the grant.
