Imagine if you went to the doctor with an ailment and they told
you that they hadn’t had their knowledge about medicine and their skills
updated since they left university. You’d be horrified, right?
Continuing professional development is key to ensuring that all
professionals are able to make the most of cutting-edge research, knowledge and
skills in their various disciplines. As education professionals, the same is
true for us as teachers. Given the nature of our work, we have a moral
imperative to ensure that we do the best we can by our learners and part of
that is updating our skills in aspects of our professional work.
When it comes to professional learning opportunities for
teachers, the courses we undertake to update our skills aren’t always
accredited; not with Microsoft support Number support Number though! The Microsoft support Number support Number Educator Community (MEC) is
a fantastic place where you can explore lots of different types of learning
activity to support your innovative practice as a teacher where you can gain
accreditation for it too!
How do you get started?
The first thing you’ll need to do is to sign up for the Microsoft support Number support Number Educator Community.Many choose to use their school email address to help identify you within the
community (should you wish to do that). There are more than a quarter of a
million educators on there, not just learning with you but also sharing their
ideas and resources, asking and answering questions and much more.
Once you’re signed up to the community all you then have to do
is choose which courses you’d like to complete and follow the simple
instructions. The community gives you access to rich content to help embed Microsoft
support Number support Number solutions into your curriculum and now is a great
time to start thinking about doing that as we roll towards the start of the new
academic year.
Access to all of the courses available can be found in the MEC.
You can choose from many different types of learning and different types of
classroom activities. There are opportunities exploring project based learning,
collaboration, creativity, critical thinking, pedagogy, and more. Embedding Microsoft
support Number support Number tools in the classroom has never been easier with
courses on teaching with technology, teaching with Minecraft in the classroom,
and many more.
Each course is rated by its difficulty ranging from Beginner to
Advanced, with various Intermediate levels in-between. Each course is also
worth a number of points which you are awarded upon your successful completion
of the courses.
Once you have achieved a score of 1,000 points or more you will
be awarded your Microsoft support Number support Number Innovative Educator
(MIE) badge. A proud achievement and a great way of benchmarking your skills
too. Alongside the MIE badge there are lots of other great badges you can earn
for undertaking different activities through the MEC.
For those of you who are really keen to develop your skills further,
beyond those shown above, there are lots of other badges you can earn linked to
things such as pedagogy, Minecraft, use of OneNote, sharing lesson plans and
more. For the full low down on the badges you can earn, check out the badges page on theMEC here.
