Their office hours are flexible, and they should be able to work with the teacher’s schedules. Attached is a flyer with the session dates.
Project Description:
The Data Citizens Western New York (DCWNY) is a Department of Education funded project. It will design, implement, and evaluate an innovative professional development model for Civics and Geography educators that will improve teacher competence, providing teachers with technological skills needed to prepare tomorrow’s spatial citizens. The teacher professional development model is designed to support geography, civics, and government teachers and students as they explore global historical questions using geo-spatial data to analyze and address civic issues.
