for all educators 


Professional development is often about adding more to the workload of teachers. Sometimes we need to use PD time to take a step BACK, reflect on our practice, and get stuff done (GSD). Quality teaching takes TIME and we don't always have the opportunity to focus on our challenges or improve our practice. 

This fast paced workshop enables teachers to GSD by using a design approach to problem solving. During this Problem Solver teachers will be introduced to the Educators' Canvas- a one page organizer that allows teachers to refine their practice by devoting time to design student centered solutions to challenges they face in the classroom. 

Come in with a challenge you want to work on and GSD! We'll be there to coach you along the way. 

Outcomes:
- Learn basic design and entrepreneurial principles  
- Experience a problem solving format you can use with colleagues and/or students
- Create something useful for your students and/or school
- Strengthen growth mindset and team relationships
- Certificate of completion for 7 professional development hours
