This would be really good for a new teacher but for those of us who have been teaching a long time (I’ve taught over 20 years) it seems pretty basic. We are suppose to differentiate for our students but professional development for educators is rarely – in my experience – differentiated. Some review is fine, but I would like more courses that really challenge me and through which I can learn something news (e.g., advances in the cognitive science of learning).
