What are Affinity Groups?
These are groups of professionals - like you - who share an interest in a common educational topic. AESA facilitates a network of ESA employees through the Affinity Group structure. All Affinity Groups "meet" in the new AESA Community online platform.
More About the New Teaching & Learning Affinity Group
Has your ESA provided an amazing professional development opportunity for teachers that you would love to share with others? Have you wondered what ESAs are offering to ensure schools are aligning curriculum, instruction, and assessment practices? If so, then this AESA Affinity Group is for you!
Participants in this Affinity Group will have access to other professionals that support or have a passion for curriculum and instruction. Members can post questions, offer suggestions, share innovations, explore challenges, and provide resources. Join us in creating an online community that assists in the development of outstanding teaching and learning practices in our local ESAs..
