PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
A Total Approach
Unlike historical piecemeal approaches to integrating technology, iSchool Campus delivers the holistic Smart School, including engaging, interactive and ongoing professional development to educators. We work closely with teachers throughout the deployment process and then provide ongoing support to ensure they are comfortable and confident working within the SmartSchool environment. iSchool Campus’ efficient blended-learning model helps educators approach learning and student achievement in transformative ways.
We understand and advance student learning by introducing the latest tools available that enrich curricula, and we coach educators in teaching essential 21st century skills within the SmartSchool environment, including: collaboration, critical thinking and problem solving, communication, creativity, and character.
