New
Web site provides one-stop shopping for educators
A new Web site, http://www.southdakotapd.com/
, links educators to a calendar of professional development opportunities
available in South Dakota. The site provides a central clearinghouse of training
opportunities
offered by education-related organizations including the South Dakota
Department of Education, School Administrators of South Dakota, Associated
School Boards of South Dakota, South Dakota Education Association, Technology
& Innovation in Education, Midwest Alliance of Professional Learning and
Leadership, and Dakota Interactive Academic Link.
Users can search
for professional development workshops by date, by city, by subject matter or by
profession (e.g., teacher, counselor, administrator, school board member,
food-service staff, librarian, bus driver). The site is designed to provide
convenient one-stop shopping for educators looking to further their knowledge
and skills.
