  Reminder: Take the PD Survey!

  The VLC team has partnered with researchers from the University of Michigan to improve your experience using classroom video and other records of practice for your teaching and professional development activities within the VLC and beyond. Your input as VLC members is invaluable and will inform the types of videos, resources, and services that are available to teachers.

  If you are willing to take a short survey about these issues, please register here by September 11 and the survey will be sent to you when it opens.

  Our partners are Elizabeth Yakel, Ph.D. (University of Michigan School of Information) and Kara Suzuka, Ph.D. (University of Michigan School of Education) and the research study is called Qualitative Data Reuse: Records of Practice in Educational Research and Teacher Development (http://qualitativedatareuse.org/). This study is funded by the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS).

This module acquaints you with the contents of the CRP, your instructional tools for using Everyday Mathematics. This module serves as a great resource for new staff members and veteran teachers who would like a refresher on the EM4 features. It also serves as a great ongoing resource for teachers to refer to throughout the school year. All participants receive a certificate of completion once the module is completed.
