8:30 am - 9:30 am  |  ARE YOU A DIGITAL CITIZEN?
Room Assignments TBD - Groups determined by teams

Digital Citizenship helps us understand what users should know to use technology appropriately and responsibly. Most of us are entirely comfortable with technology, but are we using it appropriately according to accepted norms, rules, and laws? This workshop will provide ideas on how to guide students to the knowledge and experience they need to act responsibly online, will introduce the topic of student online privacy and reduce the risk of student data being compromised and will empower educators to make highly informed decisions about the digital tools they use with their students.


9:30 am - 9:50 am  |  BREAK


9:50 am - 11:50 am
SESSION ONE  |  PLCs

Professional Learning Communities have many goals, including improving skills and knowledge through collaborative conversations, study and thoughtful SMART goals and action steps. Please use this time to work with your fellow colleagues on team goals that can directly benefit students and programs.

Room assignments are currently to be determined. Classrooms will be determined within one week of PD Day and will be sent to you via email.
